ATC Survey Study Closed! Thank you! (Results Attached)
Update March 14, 2014
Hi All,
Thanks for those of you who participated in the study and completed the survey! It's you that made all this possible. Today I am glad to report that the study is closed and part of the data was analyzed. We had some really interesting findings, and I would like to share them with you. Here is the link to the tech report we wrote based on the findings:

If you are interested in learning more about the non-cooperative object project, a longer version of the tech report and my thesis would give you a good overview and detailed information. They could be found here:

Again, thank you very much for supporting our research!
Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at [email protected] .

All,
I am a master's student at University of Waterloo in Canada. I am right now seeking pilots and air traffic controllers to participate in a 30-minute online survey. The following recruitment letter provides more details about the study.
The appearance of the post has been clear by Rob in PPRuNe Towers. And we will provide the results for anyone who asks and/or contacts the researcher when it is completed.
Thanks for your interest!

We are looking for volunteers to take part in an online survey study examining controllers perspectives on the information about non-cooperative objects (i.e. birds, unmanned aircraft systems, weather, etc.) that should be gathered by radar surveillance systems. The results will be used as a foundation to provide mitigation strategies for current radar surveillance systems on how the non-cooperative objects, especially unmanned aircraft, should be displayed. This project is conducted under the supervision of Professor Jonathan Histon.
In order to participate in the study, you are expected to have professional working/training experience as a pilot/air traffic controller. In the survey, you would be asked to answer questions about your experience with non-cooperative unmanned aircraft, your preference of information level of detail regarding the display of unmanned aircraft, and potential factors that would affect your communication with the pilots/controllers.
The survey takes approximately 30 minutes to complete, which can be finished whenever and wherever at your convenience, as long as you have the access to the internet. Please be noted that no login and passwords are required, therefore the survey has to be completed at one sitting. Participation is voluntary and anonymous. Although no monetary remuneration will be given, your commitment is greatly appreciated.

Just to clarify that you do not need previous experience with UAV/UAS to participate in the study. As long as you have professional experience as an air traffic controller and/or pilot, we welcome your participation and interest!
