the NG9-1-1 Storm
NG9-1-1
Next Generation 9-1-1
the biggest fundamental change in the method of contacting emergency services since the invention of the telephone
NG9-1-1 & Esri
Teamed with ESWG* to inform the GIS & Mapping Communities about the changes brought about by NG9-1-1
* Emergency Systems Working Group - TIF85 & TIF82 Communications sub-committees
NG9-1-1: A Condensed Overview
9-1-1 Process
Three Step Process
- Receive a Call
- Locate the Call
- Forward the Call
The anatomy of a call
Today’s 9-1-1 System
- Uses the address of a
land line telephone number.
- Hard-coded table-driven.
- Obsolete technology.
- Automatic Number Identifier / Automatic Location Identifier (ANI / ALI)
- Master Street Address Guide (MSAG)
Call Statistics
70% 10% 20%
Public Expectation
- know where you are
- use any media
NG9-1-1 Technology
- IP-based infrastructure
- ESInet – Emergency Services IP Network
a secure network designed specifically for public safety operations
- Modern technology
NG9-1-1 Technology
Think of our current 9-1-1 infrastructure as a “dial up internet
connection” and NG9-1-1 as a “broadband connection”

Its all about the data
“GIS data is mission critical to the success of NG9-1-1”
GIS & NG9-1-1
Coordinates will be used to determine PSAP and dispatch routing. NG 9-1-1 relies on Point in Polygon processes

Disruption
“The transition will be gradual but intense for a significant period of time (1 to 5+ years).” “Stakeholder engagement, technical and operational needs assessments, funding, and coordinated planning must start now!” “providers and industry stakeholders must PLAN, FUND, and EXECUTE…”

(founded 1862)
- Colonel John McCrae who wrote “In Flanders Fields” was from Guelph

Interesting Interview Comments
“We’ve been working on the NG infrastructure for a while now. We thought we were in pretty good shape. Now I realize that there is a whole data component that we hadn’t thought about.” “When we are unsure of an address, we follow the big red truck.” “We just digitized that data (school zones). We didn’t know it was in the GIS database.”

Different PSAP Data
- PSAP’s receive different data
- local changes by the PSAP’s
- long update cycles
- un-assumed roads may not be in the database
- informal processes and personal connections to
manage changes

Recommendations
NG9-1-1: Aggregation
Incumbent Local Exchange Carrier Sources Aggregation Destination(s) PSAP Exchange and Aggregation Process
Municipal Provincial Federal Other
Many Data Sources
The need for aggregation
Sept 12/19 - CONSENSUS Interim Report ESRE0089
ESWG
Recommendation:
in the absence of a provincial NG9-1-1 aggregator the Incumbent Local Exchange Carrier (e.g.: Bell in Ontario) service providers become the aggregator
