Abstract
Control room tasks like road traffic management require continuous visual assessment paired with active interventions. This includes monitoring a range of information sources and resolution of live scenarios in real time using Standard Operating Procedures. We investigated how three operators resolved a simulated ‘object in the road’task, requiring information gathering and integration from multiple displays. Visual sampling was quantified from eyetracking and related to a Hierarchical Task Analysis. Operators followed heterogeneous strategies to accomplish the same main goal, differing in the attended ROI sequence and task component weighting. Differing preferences for information sampling were accommodated by prescribed data entry fields in the incident log.
