T-NASA: Taxiway Navigation and Situation Awareness System
T-NASA was developed using a human-centered design process, composed
of task analysis, information requirements analysis, iterative part-task
and full-mission simulations, and a flight test.

The cleared taxi route, and runway clearance holds are displayed
using "scene-linked symbology" on the Head-Up Display (HUD).

The airport layout, ownship position, taxiroute, clearance
holds, and traffic information are supplied on a head-down Electronic
