Human-Automation Interaction Considerations for Unmanned Aerial System Integration: A Workshop

Completed

The workshop explored what human-systems interaction issues affect the ease and effectiveness of managing and controlling unmanned aerial systems within the complex national airspace system.

Description

An ad hoc steering committee will plan and conduct a 2-day workshop aimed at advancing the understanding of the human factors/human systems integration issues associated with the full integration of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) into the National Airspace System (NAS). The focus will be on human interaction considerations relevant to the design and operations of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) technology, particularly within the context of implementing automation capabilities within ground control stations (GCS). The workshop will highlight existing human factors and human-systems integration research while identifying opportunities to address gaps and opportunities in research, application, and implementation. The committee will define the specific topics to be addressed, develop the agenda, and select and invite speakers and other participants. After the workshop, proceedings of a workshop of the presentations and discussions at the workshop will be prepared by a designated rapporteur and published following the National Academies’ policies and procedures for such publications, including the standard review procedures.
