Claims12
A method for determining common language location identifier codes for a plurality of locations comprising:
- receiving a request for service from an end user;
- transmitting an instruction to the end user to make a first telephone call from a first location;
- receiving the first telephone call from the end user located at the first location;
- receiving a second telephone call from the end user located at a second location;
- determining a call type being one of a landline or cellular associated with each of the first telephone call and the second telephone call;
- determining location data and related data associated with the first telephone call;
- determining location data and related data associated with the second telephone call;
- determining, by a processor, a common language location identifier code, a street address, and vertical and horizontal coordinates for the first location using the location data and related data associated with the first call;
- determining, by the processor, a common language location identifier code, a street address, and vertical and horizontal coordinates for the second location using the location data and related data associated with the second call;
- plotting on a map the location data associated with the first call and the location data associated with the second call.
