Abstract: A system and method for using location data from actual 911 cell phone calls, to determine the coverage areas (orientation and range) of any sector (antenna) in a cell phone system. This coverage area is typically described as the area enclosed by a circular sector with the antenna at the center of the circle. The physical locations of the actually received 911 cell phone calls are determined with respect to the physical location of the antenna. These locations are typically defined in terms of latitude and longitude. A percentage of locations of the origins of the cell phone calls that is desired to be captured by the area enclosed by the circular sector are determined. Two variables are used to adjust the capture of the desired number of calls—the length of the arc (expressed in terms of the percentage of phone calls enclosed by a given length) and the radius of the circle (range of the antenna) (again expressed in terms of the percentage of calls enclosed by the resulting area).

Abstract: A method for communicating information associated with emergency calls communicated to emergency response centers includes receiving, by an emergency call analysis system, emergency call information that defines an emergency call communicated to an emergency response center within a geographic region. The emergency call information includes location information of the emergency call. The emergency call analysis system may then determine statistical information associated with emergency calls made within a geographic region. A computer server may then generate browser code executable by a browser to cause the browser to display the statistical information.

Abstract: A method for predicting a survival rate among individuals, where the survival rate depends in part on a responsiveness of emergency personnel, and the responsiveness of the emergency personnel depends in part on an amount of time taken to route an emergency call to a primary emergency response center, includes determining, by a computer system, a number of emergency calls initially routed to a primary emergency response center. The computer system determines a number of emergency calls initially routed to a secondary emergency response center that, in turn, routes the emergency calls to the primary emergency response center. The computer system calculates a survival rate amount individuals according to a function of the determined number of the number of emergency calls initially routed to a primary emergency response center and the number of emergency calls initially routed to a secondary emergency response center. The calculated survival rate is displayed on a terminal.

Abstract: A system and method for automatically notifying others when a 9-1-1 emergency call has been placed from a cellular phone. The user selects the people who she would like to be contacted in the case of an emergency. The contact information (e.g., phone numbers and email address) for these notification contacts are entered into an application resident on the phone. In the event of an emergency, the application connects the user to the 9-1-1 system and automatically notifies the user's predetermined list of contacts via email and/or text notification. These notifications preferably contain the user's name, telephone number, current location, and the date/time of the 9-1-1 call.

Abstract: A system and method for determining the historical density of 911 calls from wireless devices. This determination is made over a certain geographical area for a statistically significant amount of time. Once the historical density of these wireless 911 calls has been determined, further determining the most efficient routing of future 911 calls in order to improve the delivery of the wireless 911 call to the responding emergency service provider. The system and the method further provides a method for use by public safety officials, communication providers and other governmental or private entities to manage and control approval and actual changes to the routing of wireless 911 calls.
