A BROAD BAND BLUE LIGHTING SYSTEM FOR RADAR APPROACH CONTROL CENTERS: EVALUATIONS AND REFINEMENTS BASED ON THREE YEARS OF OPERATIONAL USE

摘要

This report contains detailed specifications for the installation and use of a Broad Band Blue (selective chromatic) lighting system for radar approach control centers. This lighting system provides (a) sufficient light for scope observers, maintenance personnel, and other individuals to work simultaneously in the operations room, thus allowing 24 hour-a-day operations, and (b) an element of flexibility that allows the scope observer the option of increasing his visual sensitivity, through dark adaptation, without decreasing the light provided for the work of other personnel.
