Subject: AT&T will use phone location data to route 911 calls to the
right responders
It uses GPS and hybrid information to locate devices within 50 meters.
By Steve Dent
AT&T is launching location-based routing of wireless 911 calls to the
appropriate call centers across the US, it announced. The company says
it'll be the first US carrier to "quickly and more accurately identify
where a wireless 911 call is coming from using device GPS and hybrid
information." That'll allow it to route the call to the correct 911
call center (public safety answering point or PSAP) which can then
"dispatch first responders to the right location faster," it wrote.
So far, wireless 911 call routing has been based on the location of
cell towers, with accuracy often no better than 10 miles. The new
system will be able to locate a device within 50 meters of its
location, potentially reducing delays, particularly when a call is
made at PSAP border areas where state, county or city boundaries
overlap, AT&T said.
