We explored the use of Work Domain Analysis (WDA) in the context of maritime tactical picture compilation. In particular, we were interested in extracting requirements for collaboration within a naval task group. This work presents a novel use of WDA, as this analysis method has not previously been used specifically to examine collaborative work processes. The WDA identified unique domain views for various team positions and collaborative boundary objects shared within the team. This use of WDA in a group context provides new requirements for the design of collaboration tools.
