WG1 Task 2 Deliverables Task 2 Deliverables (clarified):  Study and make recommendations on the architectural, technical, operational standards, and security requirements (including cyber) of location based routing that uses longitude and latitude information or other location identification methods (when available) to determine routing to the appropriate PSAP for voice 911 calls from wireless devices that include CMRS, IP-Based (VoLTE, WiFi), and Over-The-Top (OTT) 911 applications. – Different routing delivery options for LBR methods: CMRS delivery option VPC delivery option (different routing table) External option going direct to PSAP 3

WG1 Task 2 Deliverables Task 2 Deliverables – con’t:  Explore and report on the pros and cons of various sources of location information available for location-based routing, the potential reliability and accuracy of the sources, and the transition path to location-based routing of voice 911 calls from wireless devices from legacy to hybrid and then fully deployed NG911 systems, in particular identifying the necessary roles and responsibilities of key stakeholders involved in supporting 911 calls from wireless devices and existing and future standards to support the transition.  Part of discussion, but not specific task: – Review the SMS and MMS Text-to-911 call routing decision process and best practices. Identify potential improvements, including transition considerations. Note: Open proceeding under FNPRM. 4

Task 2 Work Since the CSRIC Board Meeting in March: – WG has identified Location Based Routing (LBR) methods and are in the process of defining these aspects for each method: Pros Cons Reliability Accuracy Roles & Responsibilities of key stakeholders – Also identify for each method: Architecture, Technical Standards, Operation SOPs, Security Requirements (including cyber) if applicable. LBR method’s use in context of call. 5

Task 2 Work Location Based Routing methods identified to date: – Hold Call until Phase 2 Available Option 1: Hold at Wireless MSC Option 2: Hold at MPC/ECS or PSAP Gateway – Interim or Quick Fix – Geo-code Registered/Provisioned Civic Address – Device-Based Hybrid Location – Wireless Location Accuracy Technologies 6

Task 2 Work Presentations were made to the WG by two vendors who provide separate components of LBR end-to-end functionality - GeoComm and Rapid SOS: – GeoComm is a GIS technology vendor who provides the software & mapping capabilities to enable LBR from a location received with a 911 call. – RapidSOS utilizes a smartphone application to identify a location (from various sources) for routing and location delivery to the appropriate PSAP. 7
