System and method for translating geodetic position measurements of emergency caller locations into dispatchable address locations

A method for translating geodetic position measurements of emergency caller locations into dispatchable address locations comprising:

• transmitting a geodetic location of a mobile communication device that is being used by a caller in a building to a public safety answering point, wherein the building comprises a plurality of floors;
• providing a building data store that stores a civic address for the building, latitude and longitude coordinates defining a 2-dimensional footprint of the building and vertical information about the building;
• populating the building data store utilizing crowdsourced input received from a mobile device running an application, wherein the application receives input from a person and wherein the crowdsourced input relates to at least one of a number of floors in the building and a height of the floors in the building;
• transmitting blockchain tokens to the mobile device running the application to compensate the person for providing the crowdsourced input;
• converting the geodetic location to the civic address;
• and
• transmitting, from the building data store, the civic address of the mobile communication device to the public safety answering point.

A system for translating geodetic position measurements of emergency caller locations into dispatchable address locations comprising:

• a public safety answering point configured to receive a geodetic location of a mobile communication device that is being used by a caller in a building, wherein the building comprises a plurality of floors;
• a building data store that configured to receive crowdsourced input and store a civic address for the building, latitude and longitude coordinates defining a 2-dimensional footprint of the building and vertical information about the building;
• a mobile device running an application configured to receive crowdsourced input from a person that is used to populate the building data store, wherein the crowdsourced input relates to at least one of a number of floors in the building and a height of the floors in the building;
• and
• a web-based service configured to provide blockchain tokens to the mobile device running the application as compensation to the person for providing the crowdsourced input to incentivize the person to provide the crowdsourced input, wherein the building data store is further configured to convert the geodetic location to the civic address that is and transmit the civic address to the public safety answering point.
