Identification of public safety answering platform next generation 911 media support
First Claim
1. Non-transitory computer-readable media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that, when executed, perform a method to identify public safety answering platform (PSAP) capabilities for emergency service calls, the method comprising:
- selecting a cell sector maintained by a network provider;
generating a test emergency services call;
transmitting the test emergency services call to a PSAP associated with the selected cell sector; and
receiving a response from the PSAP that indicates whether the PSAP supports a media format identified in the test emergency services call.

Abstract
A method, system, and medium are provided for generating a profile for public safety answering platforms. The profile identifies media formats supported by the PSAPs at various cell sector locations maintained by a network provider. A network server selects a cell sector and generates a test emergency services call. The test emergency services call is transmitted to a PSAP. The PSAP generates a response that indicates whether the PSAP supports a media format identified in the test emergency services call. The PSAP transmits the response to the network server for storage in the profile.
