Tiivistelmä
Remote-control of an unmanned surface vessel is an essential part of unmanned maritime operations. Remote-controlled vessel operations are one of the first and crucial steps towards the future of unmanned and autonomous maritime operations.
The objective of the thesis is to establish user-centred design requirements for a remote- control system. The aim is to understand the phenomena of remote-controlled operations and to determine how different standards, guidelines, best practises and human factors regulate, guide or frame them.
The thesis includes the examining of system engineering process, requirement handling, human factors, situation awareness and decision-making as well as standards, guidelines, design principles and codes of practise. The research problem and questions are examined mainly by compiling and analysing sources using literature research methods from the user's point of view.
An essential part of the study is the cognitive Goal-Directed Task Analysis (GDTA) focused on the remote operators´ navigation tasks. The purpose of the analysis is to determine remote the operators´ information, decision-making and situation awareness requirements. The results include some design requirements for a remote-control system based on the operators´ needs.
