Abstract: Methods and systems for routing an emergency services call across an emergency services network to a public safety answering point (PSAP) in accordance with the NG9-1-1 standard are disclosed herein. Generally, a communication session is established between an originating network provider and a conference bridge on the emergency services network. A preferred destination PSAP is then determined and a second communication session is established between the conference bridge and the destination PSAP.

Abstract: Methods and systems for the storage and retrieval of originating caller location information in an emergency services system are disclosed. Subscriber information from a telephone service provider is received by a NG-911 service provider, the subscriber information including a subscriber telephone number and an associated subscriber address. The service provider generates geo-spatial coordinates corresponding to said subscriber address and stores the subscriber information and the corresponding geo-spatial data in a geographic information system (GIS) database, indexed at least according to said subscriber telephone number. In response to a query from a PSAP relating to an emergency service call originating from the subscriber telephone number, the NG-911 service provider queries the GIS database for the originating telephone number and returns the geo-spatial coordinates and the associated subscriber address.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention relate to a computer system and method for routing messages over a network, including messages originating from mobile devices and messages destined for emergency services. Initial messages may be associated with a sessionless protocol, e.g., SMS. An initial message embodying a text-based communication that originated from a mobile device at a location and time may be received, and a service query comprising the location of the mobile device may then be transmitted. In response to the service query, the recipient of the message may be identified along with a location, with the initial message being forwarded through the network to the identified recipient.
