Abstract
A mobile emergency response network may be utilized to respond to emergencies. Emergency response resources may be selected and deployed through the use of network communications between user equipment and network elements. In an example configuration, a mobile emergency response network may receive emergency data, determine an emergency is occurring, determine a resource requirement for the emergency, identify a mobile device associated with a user who meets the resource requirement, and send a request to the mobile device.
Claims20
An emergency services server comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory coupled to the processor, the memory comprising executable instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to effectuate operations comprising:
- receiving, from a first remote mobile device over a first wireless communication channel, a first emergency message comprising a first multimedia data file, wherein the first multimedia data file comprises first metadata;
- receiving, from a second remote mobile device over a second wireless communication channel, a second emergency message comprising a second multimedia data file, wherein the second multimedia data file comprises second metadata;
- separating the first multimedia data file from the first emergency message;
- extracting a first location value from the first metadata;
- separating the second multimedia data file from the second emergency message;
- extracting a second location value from the second metadata;
- aggregating the first multimedia data file and the second multimedia data file;
- generating an emergency responder request comprising the aggregated first and second multimedia data files;
- defining, based on the first location value and the second location value, a candidate region;
- identifying a candidate mobile device within the candidate region, wherein the candidate mobile device is not the first remote mobile device or the second remote mobile device;
- and
- transmitting the emergency responder request over a third wireless communication channel to the candidate mobile device.
A method comprising:
- receiving, by an emergency services server, from a first remote mobile device over a first wireless communication channel, a first emergency message comprising a first multimedia data file, wherein the first multimedia data file comprises first metadata;
- receiving, by the emergency services server, from a second remote mobile device over a second wireless communication channel, a second emergency message comprising a second multimedia data file, wherein the second multimedia data file comprises second metadata;
- separating, by the emergency services server, the first multimedia data file from the first emergency message;
- extracting, by the emergency services server, a first location value from the first metadata;
- separating, by the emergency services server, the second multimedia data file from the second emergency message;
- extracting, by the emergency services server, a second location value from the second metadata;
- aggregating, by the emergency services server, the first multimedia data file and the second multimedia data file;
- generating, by the emergency services server, an emergency responder request comprising the aggregated first and second multimedia data files;
- defining, by the emergency services server, based on the first location value and the second location value, a candidate region;
- identifying, by the emergency services server, a candidate mobile device within the candidate region, wherein the candidate mobile device is not the first remote mobile device or the second remote mobile device;
- and
- transmitting, by the emergency services server, the emergency responder request over a third wireless communication channel to the candidate mobile device.
