Abstract
Traffic management and control systems are deployed in all modes of tranportation to ensure a safe and efficient traffic flow. In maritime transportation, traffic control is perfonned by Vessel Traffic Services (VTS). In search for optimal support for VTS operators, tools are developed constantly. A performance based measurement of situation awareness of YTS operators is used to evaluate changes in the support system. This paper describes a laboratory experiment in a full scale interactive VTS simulator which aims at establishing a base-line measurement of situation awareness for VTS operator performance. A scoring system for VTS operator performance accounts for the specific characteristics of VTS operator work, such as accuracy and relevance of information.
