Scope

The scope of this Vertical Flight document is limited to human behavioral technologies associated with design and/or implementation of Enhanced Synthetic Vision Systems (ESVS) in vertical flight aircraft. Any overlap into logic problems or hardware/software design shall be considered to be incidental to the human factors issues. Where the performance characteristics of specific technologies are relevant they will be identified@ and where performance criteria are relevant to specific intended functions/use they will be identified. From a regulatory view@ intended function (Full Flight Guidance or Information/Situation Awareness support) has a tremendous effect upon the design of an ESV System. However from a Human Engineering standpoint@ the information on display must be discernible and comprehensible to the human operator in both cases and differences may be primarily in information content (required to support a specific task). The document is independent of candidate technologies and concentrates on human interface criteria. This document does not include consideration of detection and/or display of air targets or integration of systems such as TCAS. Purpose This document addresses human factors considerations and requirements in data access@ display comprehension@ interpretation and application of imagery and integrated symbology in Enhanced (sensor) and Synthetic (database) Vision Systems as applicable to vertical flight platforms@ and is a compilation of human factors recommended practices in the design and/or implementation of ESVS. It may be updated to reflect research and development results and as the technology improves and applications expand@ the coverage of the document will be expanded.
