The MOVES Institute has recently been awarded a grant by the Office of
Naval Research's TechSolutions
to revamp and vastly improve upon the current "APARTS" database to
assist Landing Signal Officers (LSO) and Navy pilots with landings
on aircraft carriers.
We will develop a distributed database
solution with custom user interfaces and handheld input devices,
advanced analytical tools and automated platform camera video
analysis methods.
The goal of MOVES' LSO database replacement
system is to improve the data entry workflow, to permit statistical
analysis across pilots, aircraft, carriers, squadrons and training
facilities, and to positively affect training effectiveness (for both
LSOs and pilots), deck safety, training cost and incident analysis.
Principal Investigators: Michael McCauley, Mathias Kölsch
Collaborators: Michael "Flanders" Ross, Neil Rowe, Arijit Das, the
team at TechSolutions, the LSO School at NAS Oceana, and NAS Lemoore.
