Abstract:
A supervisor, working in an area control center in air traffic control has direct impact on the performance of the air traffic controllers. Thus, he/she has to be well informed about the situation within the center. In order to support the supervisors work, researchers try to measure the air traffic controllers’ cognitive workload and stress. Within this paper we present a visual tool to support the supervisors awareness about this data. We outline the whole design process including preliminary studies, the iterative process leading to a final prototype, and its evaluation. We propose a design divided into three views, to serve the supervisor’s information needs. Using cumulated color values to represent time series, seems to be a promising approach for getting a quick overview on the whole situation.
