... : This presentation will discuss some lessons learned from the development of ground stations for Global Hawk and discuss how those lessons learned provide insight into the human systems integration aspects of the integration of emerging technology into the missions that are emerging for use of these platforms in the NAS. In many cases the information required for pilotage is impacted by automation and mission, but there is essential information that has emerged out of the ASSURE work on Task A7 UAS Human Factors Considerations/A10 being conducted as part of the FAA [Federal Aviation Administration]

... of manned aviation pilot instrumentation; the evolution of Global Hawk and other small, commercial off-the-shelf ground-station displays; and the relevance to UAS control-station considerations. The discussion included considerations for unmanned aerial control stations, including pilot flight display requirements, unique UAS attributes, and command and control links.

... For training that involves highly autonomous systems, he noted the importance of understanding how they operate so a human can then understand how to intervene when necessary. Finally, Carraway touched on the potential that automation creates an environment in which one could have a single pilot flying multiple aircraft, a situation that definitely presents some unique training considerations.
