NASA Standard 3000 Human Systems Integration Standards (HSIS) Update

Abstract

NASA Standard 3000 - Human Systems Integration Standards (HSIS) — is a comprehensive collection of human-system interface requirements applicable to launch, entry, on-orbit, and extraterrestrial space environments. The entire document, intended for use by design engineers, systems engineers, maintainability engineers, operations analysts, human factors specialists, and others engaged in the definition and development of human space programs, was last updated in 1995. During the past four years, NASA Technology Development Projects have targeted the development of an infrastructure to successfully convert the existing document to a web-based application, and content updates have been proposed based on current knowledge from spaceflight experience or research. Electronic presentation, hyperlinked data cross-references and Internet publication will provide a variety of output products and/or presentation formats tailored to various user communities. The intent is to provide current, relevant data, maximize user access to current SHFE data via Internet distribution and transition to a “living document”, readily updateable as SHFE knowledge increases.
