Abstract

ABSTRACT New concepts for aeronautical charting technology are being proposed, in which pilots would brief with a fixed chart but then fly with a user-configurable aeronautical chart, which may not include all the information elements that were briefed. We conducted a study to identify a set of minimum information requirements for this concept. Two hundred twenty-nine pilots rated the importance of information elements shown on four different types of aeronautical charts. We analyzed the data using one-way chi-square tests and consulted with subject matter experts to identify a criticality level for each information element. We classified 85% of the information elements into one of four “importance” levels to identify a “minimum set” and depicted what such a concept might look like. The results of this research provide insight into one framework for defining configurable electronic charts and highlight other human factors considerations in the design of these charts.
