System and method for determining the routing of 911 calls

A method for tracking decisions for routing of telephone calls from wireless devices to a 911 system, the method operable on a computer system, the method comprising:

• receiving 911 wireless call data, the 911 wireless call data comprising location information related to the geographical location of the origin of the telephone call, and comprising sector information related to an antenna sector which processed the telephone call;
• determining a jurisdiction corresponding to the geographic location of the orgin of the telephone call;
• determining a number of telephone calls that originate in different jurisdictions over a predetermined period of time;
• for at least one antenna sector, determining if the number of telephone calls originating in a particular jurisdiction exceeds a predetermined threshold, providing a interface for use by at least one decision maker;
• displaying at least one of the determinations to the decision maker;
• and
• receiving a decision from the at least one decision maker regarding the routing of telephone calls in the at least one sector.

A computer readable medium having program code stored thereon which, when run on a computer, causes the computer to determining routing of telephone calls from wireless devices to a 911 system comprising:

• receiving 911 wireless call data, the 911 wireless call data comprising location information related to the geographical location of an origin of a telephone call, and comprising sector information related to an antenna sector which processed the telephone call;
• determining a jurisdiction corresponding to the geographic location of the origin of the telephone call;
• determining a number of telephone calls that originate in different jurisdictions over a predetermined period of time;
• for at least one antenna sector, determining if the number of telephone calls originating in a particular jurisdiction exceeds a predetermined threshold;
• if the number of telephone calls exceeds the predetermined threshold, that the future telephone calls of different origins received by the at least one antenna sector should be routed to a 911 system associated with the particular jurisdiction.

A system for determining routing of telephone calls from wireless devices to a 911 system, the system comprising

• an input/receiving section that receives 911 wireless call data, the 911 wireless call data comprising location information related to the geographical location of the origin of the telephone call, and comprising sector information related to an antenna sector which processed the telephone call;
• a data processing and analysis section coupled to the input/receiving section, the data processing and analysis section:
• determining a jurisdiction corresponding to the geographic location of the origin of the telephone call,
• determining a number of telephone calls that originate in different jurisdictions over a predetermined period of time, and for at least one antenna sector,
• determining if the number of telephone calls originating in a particular jurisdiction exceeds a predetermined threshold;
• if the number of telephone calls exceeds the predetermined threshold, determining that the future telephone calls of different origins received by the at least one antenna sector should be routed to a 911 system associated with the particular jurisdiction;
• and
• an output section coupled to the data processing and analysis section, the output section outputting a graphical representation of at least one of the determinations of the data processing and analysis section.
