1. A method for identifying communication origin location in relation to an emergency response system, the method comprising:
- receiving a network access request associated with a communication device, wherein the communication device is communicatively connected to a first network, the first network selected from the group consisting of a public switched telephone network and a public Internet;
determining a location status of the communication device indicating whether the communication device has potentially moved via a communication device stability module; and
based at least in part on the location status of the communication device, querying for a location of the communication device;
receiving the location of the communication device; and
registering the location of the communication device in a registration module resident in a second network separate and distinct from the first network.

Abstract
Systems and methods for determining and/or providing call origin location information. In one particular case, a method is provided for identifying communication origin location in relation to an emergency response system. The method includes providing a communication device stability module and receiving a network access request associated with a communication device. A location status of the communication device is determined, and based at least in part on the location status of the communication device, a query is issued requesting a location of the communication device.

15. A system for identifying communication device location in relation to an emergency response system, the system comprising:
-
a communication device stability module, wherein the communication device stability module is operable to determine a location status of a communication device indicating whether the communication device has potentially moved, wherein the communication device is communicatively connected to a first network, the first network selected from the group consisting of a public switched telephone network and a public Internet; a registration module, wherein the registration module is operable to register a location of the communication device, wherein the registration module resides in a second network separate and distinct from the first network; and a location access module, wherein the location access module is operable to query for a location of the communication device based at least in part on the location status of the communication device. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
