Abstract
A research project to define requirements for integrating a digital map in advanced cockpits for the year 2000 and beyond. The issues being addressed in this project include map size and scale requirements, display sizing and compatibility, map data storage requirements, embedded compression processors, databus traffic, processor workload, and map utility. During 1990, work has progressed in defining operational requirements, identifying the storage/image-quality/display size tradeoffs, and developing a technique for enhancing the pilot vehicle interface
