Endsley, Mica R. and Rodgers, Mark D. (1994): Situation Awareness Information Requirements Analysis for En Route Air Traffic Control. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 38th Annual Meeting 1994. pp. 71-75.

Situation awareness is a fundamental requirement for effective air traffic control forming the basis for controller decision making and performance. To develop a better understanding of the role of situation awareness in air traffic control, an analysis was performed to determine the specific situation awareness requirements for air traffic control. This was conducted as a goal-direct task analysis in which the major goals, subgoals, decisions and associated situation awareness requirements for En Route Air Traffic Control (ATC) were delineated based on elicitation from eight experienced Air Traffic Control Specialists. This effort was supported by available task analyses and video-tapes of simulated air traffic control tasks. A determination of the major situation awareness requirements for En Route ATC was developed from this analysis, providing a foundation for future system development which seeks to enhance controller situation awareness and provides a basis for the development of situation awareness measures for air traffic control.

Rodgers, Mark D. (1993): SATORI: Situation Assessment Through Re-Creation of Incidents. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society 37th Annual Meeting 1993. p. 1031.

A system has been developed that graphically re-creates the radar data recorded at En Route air traffic control facilities. Each facility records data sent to the radar displays associated with the airspace under its control on a System Analysis Report (SAR) tape. SATORI (Situation Assessment Through Re-creation of Incidents) overlays the SAR data on the appropriate sector maps using map data from the Adaptation Control Environmental System (ACES) database. Voice records from the audiotape recording of the communications between the controller and pilots, and interphone communications are digitized and replayed in synchrony with the events displayed on the screen. Figure 1 details the SATORI data processing flow. The analog switch display settings of the PVD are not recorded, however subroutines have been written for SATORI that allow the display to be set up with the settings reported to have been used by a given controller. In addition to the above, SATORI has the capability to display the high and low weather intensity that was displayed on a given PVD. All software routines written for SATORI use Open Systems Foundation (OSF) technology. Similar data to those available from En Route facilities are recorded at TRACON facilities and should allow for the development of a re-creation tool much like the one discussed in this report. Once SATORI is evaluated, it will be possible to accomplish the goals of evaluating system designs, over-the-shoulder appraisals, training outcomes, and measuring controller performance.
