    OBJECTIVEGA-ASI’s Safety, Technical Operation, Reliability, Maintenance (STORM) Ground Control Station (GCS) significantly improves the Human-machine Interface (HMI), ergonomics, and mission capability for GCS operators. STORM consists of a GA-ASI legacy Pilot/Payload Operator (PPO) GCS workstation equipped with a Linux PC computer upgrade. This provides increased processing performance, improved reliability, Hi-Resolution Video and single-seat pilot and sensor operations. HMI improvements include HD-integrated touch screen displays, as well as a video switching capability

    that allows aircrew to move any video source to any screen except the HUD. A 24-inch display between the pilot and payload operator provides screen space for shared pilot/payload data such as weather, airspace, or any information of interest to both aircrew. Other ergonomic layout improvements include electronically adjustable and heated aircrew seats and electronically adjustable rudder pedals.
