Optical TCAS For UAVs

Not Available The number and diversity of Cognitive Task Analysis (CTA) methods has grown rapidly over the past decade and continues to expand. A NATO-ONR workshop held in 1997 identified a number of issues that need to be addressed for continued growth and advancement of the CTA field. Among the needs identified is a resource that provides convenient, effective access to CTA practices and products, and access to examples of CTA. The Phase I SBIR proposed here would begin to develop that resource. Critically important to the success of such a resource will be to identify an overarching structure and set of indexing dimensions that are meaningful and valid for a range of users. We will work with CTA specialists and prospective users of the tool to identify and develop these elements, building functionality, case content and structure, representation formats, and search and retrieval processes designed around their information needs.
