This is the last of three volumes describing the results of a program to develop technology to enhance the aircraft battle damage assessment and repair (ABDAR) process. This volume describes the results of a field test conducted to evaluate the ABDAR Demonstration System. The system was evaluated by comparing the performances of technicians performing a simulated aircraft battle damage assessment task using the ABDAR demonstration system with the performances of technicians performing the task with conventional paper-based technical orders (TOs). The study compared two types of electronic technical data presented on the ABDAR Demonstration System (Content Data Model CDM and Indexed Portable Document Format IPDFJ) with the performance of technicians using paper TOs. Dependent variables of speed, accuracy, and completeness were measured. Subjects using the ABDAR Demonstration System with CDM data performed significantly faster than subjects using the ABDAR Demonstration System with IPDF data, improving the overall time by 86%. Subjects using CDM and IPDF data were significantly more accurate and complete than subjects using Paper, regardless of technician type. Assessments by subjects using CDM were 39%more complete and 51%more accurate than assessments conducted by subjects using paper TOs. Assessments by subjects using IPDF were 34%more complete and 44%more accurate than assessments by subjects using paper TOs. Overall, the ABDAR Demonstration System tools, in conjunction with electronic technical data, provided a significant advantage over the current, paper-based method of performing ABDAR assessments. |
