Licensed mariners carried out two simulated navigation studies testing electronic chart and information display systems (ECDIS) against paper chart navigation. In the first study, six mariners each completed approaches to Halifax, Nova Scotia, harbour with good and bad visibility and a range of wind and currents. Conditions included chart with radar, ECDIS with radar overlay and ECDIS with separate radar. ECDIS produced better performance and a smaller workload than paper charts and the radar overlay was slightly better than the separate radar display. In the second study, six new mariners completed exercises with low visibility and heavy or light radar traffic using ECDIS with radar overlay, ECDIS without overlay and ECDIS with optional overlay. Mariners preferred the optional overlay but all three conditions produced about equal performance. Based on mariners' performance and expressed preference, we recommend that ECDIS systems provide optional radar overlays.

Display Systems

Only two levels of adaptation are used in the most present human engineering projects of information display systems—total and contingent. At the same time experimental and theoretical analysis of the statistical relationships between structures of information display and values of psychological factors of complexity of operators' problem solving shows that three additional levels of adaptation are necessary. There are group, individual and individually—operative levels. Some mathematical methods of evaluation of optimal distribution of information displays between individuals operators, combinations of man with different individual characteristics in one operators group are worked out.
