9-1-1 System – Timeline
1980s–90s:
Enhanced 9-1-1:
1968:
• Calls are routed based
on local jurisdictions
VoIP
Today:
NG9-1-1:
1990s – 2000s:
Basic 9-1-1:
Wireless 9-1-1:
• Copper Land Line
• Callers are nomadic
and must first be
located
• Callers and PSAPs are
fixed locations

Background / 9-1-1 Today
• Existing 9-1-1 infrastructure was
initially designed to do one thing
– process emergency calls from
a fixed location
• Majority of calls for emergency
service today are nomadic, from
several different devices
• NG9-1-1 environment cannot be
reliant upon the legacy
infrastructure
Legacy 9-1-1
NG9-1-1
Only ANI/ALI
Advanced data
sharing
-telematics, sensors
Access to services
are locally provided
and fixed by
jurisdiction
Enhanced
capabilities; physical
location of PSAP
becomes less
important
Routing based on
phone number /
MSAG
Ability to dynamically
route based on
geographic location

What is NG9-1-1?
• Current 9-1-1 system is reliable, but based on antiquated technology
– Limited ability to transfer and not designed for moving the data that is now a daily part
of communications, such as text and images
• NG9-1-1 is often considered a network, but it doesn’t stop there – it is the
culmination of converging many applications into a common platform
– NG9-1-1 is best described as an open-standard-based, robust system of systems, that
allows the public to use any device to request help
• It allows access from the legacy 9-1-1 system while allowing for greater
interoperability
• NG9-1-1 does not have a “chosen” or preferred entry point

GIS in NG9-1-1
• GIS plays crucial role in NG9-1-1 call routing
• Routing database is GIS data centric
• Accuracy of GIS data is paramount
• Shared data – coordination
• 9-1-1 authority is responsible for the data
• Location is delivered with call
• Location is pre-validated using GIS data (LVF)

GIS in NG9-1-1
• NG9-1-1 will require scalability for more data
• Additional fields in database design
– Structures: Floor, Room, Seat
– Roads: More jurisdictional boundary fields, classifications, routing
– Additional layers: Neighborhoods, unincorporated communities, more
classifications for common places, parcels
• More potential for interoperability with other systems
– Healthcare, emergency management, industrial sites (HAZMAT)
– Facility plans, large campuses

NG9-1-1 Improved Data Interoperability
• Common Operation Picture (COP) Systems
• Sensors, Cameras, Photos – all with location tags
• 9-1-1 Centers, Emergency Operation Center, First Responders all
using same GIS data
• Improved data interoperability across local, state and federal
agencies during large incidents
• GIS Data Redundancy and Backup
– Access to data outside of your jurisdiction
– Other PSAPs can access your GIS data for dispatch during high
call volume

Approach
• Central 9-1-1 GIS Repository
–
–
–
–
–
Enable PSAPs to share GIS information
Establish MOAs
Set standards for GIS data entry
Set standards for regular maintenance plan
Future framework for NG9-1-1 database
• Statewide SCL’s
• Statewide PSAP Boundary Layer
• Validation of GIS with MSAG, ALI
