Low-level helicopter navigation, both at night and during the day, is an essential portion of the Army's mission. Navigation performance, defined as the probability of navigating along a prescribed route or route segment without deviation, is a function of many factors including map type, terrain type, and time of day. Determining the effects of these factors is important for predicting performance of Army navigators, identifying factors critical to navigation, evaluating the probability of navigation success along a route, and developing training aids. The research reported here analyzed low-level flight experiment data to develop that information. This report contains results of the analyses of helicopter low-level navigation data, (a) to determine the probability of navigation success along a route as a function of terrain type, (b) to develop a means of determining route difficulty, and (c) to develop a method of scoring student performance. The FORTRAN computer programs and the navigation data base used in the analysis are also documented. (Author)
