AIR TRAFFIC CONFLICT DISPLAYS - FALZON TO TROTSKY

摘要

A relative distance display was first suggested by Falzon in 1982. Although the display was not evaluated in its original form, a modified Conflict Risk display was tested in real-time simulation. It was received with enthusiasm by controllers, although its use was not easy. The Short Term Conflict Alert, implemented in real ATC, was more directly usable. Finally, the TROTSKY demonstrator incorporated conflict indications and conflict resolution validation into the controllers' main display. The development reflects the developing awareness of the potential for computer-based systems to reflect human cognitive processes.
