Systems and methods for providing location signals/indicators when 911 dialed
First Claim
1. A system for providing emergency communication comprising:
- a processor executing instructions stored in memory, the instructions causing the processor to;
receive a communication from a sender'"'"'s communications address to an emergency response communications address;
associate the sender'"'"'s communications address and the emergency response communications address to a profile;
retrieve an emergency address from the profile;
prompt the sender during the communication to enter a code that blocks generation of an emergency locator signal;
automatically block generation of the emergency locator signal when the code is entered; and
generate the emergency locator signal when the code is not entered to identify a location of the sender'"'"'s communications device.

Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatuses that operate with different communications devices, different users, and/or different communications networks to generate, enable, and/or transmit an Emergency Locator Signal to a communications address of the local communications network. According to embodiments, the transmitted Emergency Locator Signal communicates with the local communications network to identify a location of the calling party'"'"'s communications device (or alternate selected communications device) at a geographic location of an Emergency Communications Address. Thereafter, the location of the calling party'"'"'s communications device is communicated to emergency response personnel to better locate a victim in proximity to the calling party'"'"'s communications device.

12. A system for providing emergency communication comprising:
-
a processor executing instructions stored in memory, the instructions causing the processor to; receive a communication from a sender'"'"'s communications address to an emergency response communications address; associate the sender'"'"'s communications address and the emergency response communications address to a profile; retrieve from the profile an emergency address and an identifier of a room within a building associated with the sender'"'"'s communications address; prompt the sender during the communication to enter a code that blocks generation of an emergency locator signal; automatically block generation of the emergency locator signal when the code is entered; generate the emergency locator signal when the code is not entered to comprise the identifier of the room within the building associated with the sender'"'"'s communications address; and send the emergency locator signal to the an emergency address to identify a physical location of the sender'"'"'s communications device. - View Dependent Claims (13)
