Exactly this is what OpenRADAR does: Implementing a user interface in compilance with industry standards (EUROCONTROL EEC references in this case). In fact, when you look at real-life RADAR operators' screens (been there, done that), you'll find, to put it mildly, a certain "variety", even within a single European country. There is not just one standard, but more and more European countries are introducing frontends which are in compilance with EEC user interface guidelines.
