control station
Operator's command post
A control station is a location equipped with instruments and interfaces for monitoring and directing operations—whether of machinery, vehicles, or systems.
The term appears in contexts ranging from industrial plants to spacecraft: The mission was coordinated from the control station in Houston.
A control station centralizes command functions, allowing operators to oversee processes from a single point.
