The invention includes a technique for integrating emergency calling for VoIP users with legacy emergency services to facilitate adapting to the evolving emergency services network and the services that are available in a given location. Generic location information provided by (or determined for) VoIP emergency callers, typically in civic or geodetic formats, is translated into Emergency Response Locations (ERLs) defining an area, such as an area within an enterprise premises, in which the caller is located. The translated location information is conveyed to the Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) with the emergency call in for form of the ANI (Automatic Number Identification) or calling line identification number. An appropriate route / gateway is then selected to be used to reach the PSAP appropriate for the caller's location, and an emergency call notification to the appropriate local emergency response personnel is generated within the enterprise based on the caller's location.

A method and system are provided for sending location dependent and personal identification information to a public safety answering point. Base stations for receiving a transmission packet signal having a transmitter identification number are located throughout an area where personal security coverage is desired. Whenever a personal security transmitter is activated, it is received by one or more base stations. Each base station has a signal receiving unit for receiving a transmission packet signal and a signal processing unit for processing a transmission packet signal and generating a base station packet. Base station packets contain both a transmitter identification number and location information about the activated transmitter. After a base station packet is generated, it is sent to a command center for processing. If a valid base station packet is received at a command center, information contained in the base station packet is used to determine the closest base station to the activated transmitter and to retrieve personal identification information about the person to whom the transmitter was issued. This location and personal identification information is then displayed at the command center or public safety answering point.

Systems and methods for two-way, interactive communication regarding emergency notifications and responses for mobile environments are disclosed. In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, a specific geographic area is designated for selective emergency communications. The emergency communications may comprise text, audio, video, and other types of data.
