Air Traffic Control Integrated Database (ATCID)

Interactive Access to Human Factors Research Data

ATCID expands the availability, understanding, and use of air traffic controller performance and safety research data. This wider utilization of research data improves the FAA's return on investment for this research. This consistent viewpoint across a spectrum of research permits quick identification of relevant data, identification of data needs, and verification of the availability of decision support data.

ATCID provides a convenient way to consolidate information from many research studies. It provides a depository for human factors information on air traffic controller performance, in a context that is accessible by a wider range of users. Each study receives exposure and reference, and is placed in a performance-oriented context with related research. As an analysis and decision support tool, ATCID meets a variety of planning, programming, training, specification, and workload data requirements.

ATCID has an open design, using COTS tools and object-oriented methods. Additional research studies and categories of research can be added efficiently.
