  • GPS for telephone line records
    Patent number: 6753809
    Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for enhancing telephone line records with Global Positioning System coordinates. One embodiment acquires Global Positioning System information associated with a telephone number. This embodiment uses the Global Positioning System information to create a telephone line record for a telephone number. The Global Positioning System information describes latitude, longitude, and elevation associated with the telephone number. The Global Positioning System information, for example, could define the location of a customer's service address, a service terminal, a cross-connect box, a wire center, and/or a central office.

  • Security permissions for an integrated dispatch system
    Publication number: 20040111634
    Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for enhancing an Integrated Dispatch System with local and system security permissions. The local security permissions deter administrators from modifying system-wide data. Once the local security permissions are established, the local security permissions permit modification of data specific to a geographic jurisdiction. The local security permissions deter modification of data not specific to the geographic jurisdiction. Once the local security permissions are established, the Integrated Dispatch System dispatches work orders for maintenance of a telecommunications network.
