1. A method for locating a device during an emergency with an information system (E-LIS), comprising:
- receiving on a server application on a network server device with one or more processors a wireless emergency message from a mobile application on a first mobile network device with one or more processors via a wireless communications network indicating an emergency event has occurred with the first mobile network device,wherein the wireless emergency message includes a unique identifier comprising a specialized E911-based unique identifier for the first mobile network device unique across all wireless and wired communications network and an indication a current set of 3D (X,Y,Z) geo-space coordinates is stored on one or more other server network devices and not on the first mobile network device;
sending one or more request messages from the server application on the server network device to one or more other server network devices via a second communications network to request the 3D (X,Y,Z) geo-space coordinates of the first mobile network device;
receiving one or more response messages on the server application on the server network device from the one or more other server network devices via the second communications network including the 3D (X,Y,Z) geo-space coordinates of the first mobile network device;
consolidating on the server application on the server network device location information from the one or more response messages for the first mobile network device;
determining on the server application on the server network device with the E911-based unique identifier and the current set of 3D (X,Y,Z) geo-space coordinates a current physical geographic location for the first mobile network;
verifying on the server application on the server network device via the wireless communications network the first mobile network device is actually located in at the determined current physical geographic; and
sending an emergency response message including the determined and verified current physical geographic location for the first mobile network device from the server application on the network server device via the second communications network to a desired emergency response server with one or more processors.

Abstract
A method and system for determining and verifying a location of mobile and non-mobile devices in emergency situations. The method and system provide a current physical geographic location for a mobile device (e.g., building address, a building floor, a room on a building floor, campus, enterprise, city, state, region, country, continent, etc.), in an emergency situation such as an accident, fire, terrorist attack, military incident, etc. and forward the physical geographic location to a legacy 911 network or a Emergency Services IP networks (ESInet).

2. A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored therein a plurality of instructions for causing one or more processors to execute the steps of:
-
receiving on a server application on a network server device with one or more processors a wireless emergency message from a mobile application on a first mobile network device with one or more processors via a wireless communications network indicating an emergency event has occurred with the first mobile network device, wherein the wireless emergency message includes a unique identifier comprising a specialized E911-based unique identifier for the first mobile network device unique across all wireless and wired communications network and an indication a current set of 3D (X,Y,Z) geo-space coordinates is stored on one or more other server network devices and not on the first mobile network device; sending one or more request messages from the server application on the server network device to one or more other server network devices via a second communications network to request the 3D (X,Y,Z) geo-space coordinates of the first mobile network device; receiving one or more response messages on the server application on the server network device from the one or more other server network devices via the second communications network including the 3D (X,Y,Z) geo-space coordinates of the first mobile network device; consolidating on the server application on the server network device location information from the one or more response messages for the first mobile network device; determining on the server application on the server network device with the E911-based unique identifier and the current set of 3D (X,Y,Z) geo-space coordinates a current physical geographic location for the first mobile network; verifying on the server application on the server network device via the wireless communications network the first mobile network device is actually located in at the determined current physical geographic; and sending an emergency response message including the determined and verified current physical geographic location for the first mobile network device from the server application on the network server device via the second communications network to a desired emergency response server with one or more processors.
