Abstract
Systems and techniques for routing emergency communications to appropriate public safety answering points (PSAPs) based on location information associated with the communications are provided. Currently, only imprecise location information is available for call routing, and retrieving the imprecise location information requires a slow, expensive query to an automatic location identification (ALI) database. The present disclosure obtains location information that can be used for routing without performing the query to the ALI database, and also incorporates the use of precise location information available from mobile device providers (when available). Similar techniques for routing other types communications to other destination devices based on location information are also disclosed.
