Technology advancements in unmanned aerial systems have provided greater levels of autonomy to the extent that it has fundamentally changed the operator’s task and information requirements. This research has applied a task analysis driven approach to identify these information requirements and generated new information visualizations to more effectively present mission critical information to the operators. Experimental results will show the performance benefits across both accuracy and response time to retrieve information and lessons learned related to task driven design and information visualizations.
