Ecological Collaborative Support System for Maritime Navigation Teams

Book chapter, 2023

Collaboration within navy Navigation Teams is progressively more dependent on technological means since they are the information sources and team members need to share and exchange different information formats. Furthermore, operators’ tasks are increasingly restricted by procedures established on information provided by various sources, constraining experts’ feedback and learning. Moreover, interfaces are often poorly adapted to the user’s task and work context, imposing a substantial cognitive effort due to the required adaptations. Therefore, the envisaged solution is fitted to the vessels’ bridge systems requirements embracing prerequisites like being customisable, enabling goals and priorities’ management, logging performance and behavioural data, sharing information, supporting information synchronisation, and providing situational awareness about the situation, system and operators.
