Report on ISOON Demonstration and Remote Operation
From Boulder, Colorado, 21 April - 22 May 2003
Dr. Alan Kiplinger, a solar physicist at the University of
Colorado, Boulder, served as the focal point for a test of the
USAF's Improved Solar Observing Optical Network
(ISOON).
His comments about our user interface design and implementation
(written in
IDL)
are documented in this report:
I can clearly state that the monitoring and analysis part of the system is very easy to use, and the learning curve is short. ... I was able to instruct, via telephone, a person (who had only seen ISOON im my office) to start it up and run movies in only 10 minutes. ... Two other persons quickly learned how to use it and would set up movies to their liking, in my absence. ... Many NOAA/SEC, Air Force and other visitors witnessed the operation in my presence, and commented on the friendly system.
2. How would you rate the ergonomics of the software, displays, and menus?
Very user friendly. The Graphical User Interfaces are well laid out, and the menus are logical and straightforward.

SOS. A thank-you letter included this:
