Crossfield Information Transfer Model

Crossfield Information Transfer Model reference article.

Overview

A model describing how information flows across the field through visual, auditory, and structural cues independent of communication language itself.

Key Points

  • Explains non verbal information transfer.
  • Defines channels for structural information flow.
  • Covers delays in information propagation.
  • Separates communication mechanics from information theory.
  • Supports analysis of team cognition and awareness cycles.

Details

Information flows across the field through visual alignment, lane behavior, pressure changes, and player movement. These cues create a continuous information network that players interpret and respond to.

This model analyzes how quickly and accurately teams process information, where breakdowns occur, and how delayed information affects match state.
