Abstract

With increased global economic development, the air traffic volume (including passengers and parcels) increases every year. Thus, the business-related load on air traffic controllers becomes heavier, which influences their need for frequent learning and training opportunities. Therefore, the only solution is to enhance the performance of the training for the air traffic controllers (ATCs) and to build uniform training procedures and standardized training content, which constitute a shared framework with ontology knowledge. Taking departure operation control processes as an example, the research analyzes an aviation organization framework, with information communication procedures and relevant knowledge assets from the viewpoint of departure processes, to explore a knowledge management model of aviation control. This research studies how explicit knowledge is transformed by CommonKADS methodology using the CommonKADS sheet, and the Unified Modeling Language (UML) graph presentation and ontology model are discussed in this research. This analysis procedure can be applied to the systematic analysis and establishment of similar business-based information systems, allowing this research result to be further shared in different industries

Highlights

  • The aviation operation is a large and complicated man-machine system, in which all crew members need to master high-level knowledge and skills and cooperate for the reduction of human error

  • The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) is based on a SHELL model [1], which has its name derived from the initial letters of its components: Software, Hardware, Environment and Liveware

  • Through regulating the learning process and the training content, the ICAO can lower the difference between operation decisions made by different people and can reduce errors that cause civil aviation accidents and other consequential events, among which human errors play a significant role [2] [3]

Summary

Introduction

The aviation operation is a large and complicated man-machine system, in which all crew members need to master high-level knowledge and skills and cooperate for the reduction of human error. The only solution is to enhance the performance of the training for the ATCs [5] and to build uniform training procedures and standardized training content, which constitute a shared framework with ontology knowledge This strategy allows the ATCs to obtain relevant knowledge and information based on their own needs and to relieve the decision-making inconsistencies that occur during air traffic operations [6]. Due to the complex process of control operations and the frequent updating of air traffic management programs by the ICAO, it is of great importance to boost the established resources of knowledge management systems by information technology to rapidly reflect the work standards of the ICAO and to develop a control operation knowledge management mode. The ontology knowledge will be built for air traffic control personnel, and a Protégé humanized interface will be adopted to establish a knowledge management model of a departure control operation. The objectives of this article are as follows: 1) Based on the ontology concept, we establish navigation management knowledge relations. 2) Organize relevant knowledge in a systematic way to reduce the time needed for operations work. 3) Establish a knowledge system model to assist an aviation control unit in importing a knowledge management system
