Abstract
This document provides guidance for portal computer-human interfaces. The
authors collected information from various standards and guidelines (including
the Human Factors Design Standard) and combined it with examples and lessons
learned through human factors experience to form specific guidelines. Guidelines
within this document are written in the form of should and shall statements.
Topics covered include page layout, text design, graphic design, and
accessibility standards. Although this document was originally written for a
specific portal, most of the guidelines can be applied to websites, intranets,
and other web-based applications. This document is
meant to be a human factors reference tool used which, when used in conjunction
with an experienced human factors professional, can improve the computer-human
interface of Federal Aviation Administration portals and web-based applications.
