Abstract

A method includes performing a first determination that a first communication was placed from a telephone number but was not received by a public safety answering point (PSAP); identifying the telephone number; and performing a second determination whether a response to a second communication to the telephone number was received.

Claims (47)

1 . A method, comprising:

performing a first determination that a first communication was placed from a telephone number but was not received by a public safety answering point (PSAP);

identifying the telephone number; and

performing a second determination whether a response to a second communication to the telephone number was received.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining a second communication, at least in part based on a determination that the response was not received.

3 . The method of claim 2 , further comprising:

connecting the second communication to a calltaker.

4 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

obtaining, from a database, a first list of placed calls made to the PSAP; and

obtaining a second list of received calls that were received by the PSAP, wherein the first determination is at least in part based on the first list and the second list.

5 . The method of claim 4 , wherein the database is a device-based hybrid (DBH), Voice over Internet Protocol (VOIP), or wireline database.

6 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining a calltaker for a return communication; and

transmitting communication information to the calltaker.

7 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining the telephone number and a location of the first communication.

8 . A system, comprising:

a memory that stores at least one instruction; and

at least one processor configured to execute the at least one instruction to cause the system to at least

perform a first determination that a first communication was placed from a telephone number but was not received by a public safety answering point (PSAP);

identify the telephone number; and

perform a second determination whether a response to a second communication to the telephone number was received.

9 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to cause the system to at least determine a second communication, at least in part based on a determination that the response was not received.

10 . The system of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to cause the system to at least connect the second communication to a calltaker.

11 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to cause the system to at least

obtain, from a database, a first list of placed calls made to the PSAP, and

obtain a second list of received calls that were received by the PSAP, and the first determination is at least in part based on the first list and the second list.

12 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the database is a device-based hybrid (DBH), Voice over Internet Protocol (VOIP), or wireline database.

13 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to determine a calltaker for a return communication and to transmit communication information to the calltaker.

14 . The system of claim 8 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to determine the telephone number and a location of the first communication.

15 . A computer-readable medium encoded with a computer program that, when executed by a system including at least one processor, causes the system to perform operations comprising:

performing a first determination that a first communication was placed from a telephone number but was not received by a public safety answering point (PSAP);

identifying the telephone number; and

performing a second determination whether a response to a second communication to the telephone number was received.

16 . The medium of claim 15 , the operations further comprising:

determining a second communication, at least in part based on a determination that the response was not received.

17 . The medium of claim 16 , the operations further comprising:

connecting the second communication to a calltaker.

18 . The medium of claim 15 , the operations further comprising:

obtaining, from a database, a first list of placed calls made to the PSAP; and

obtaining a second list of received calls that were received by the PSAP, wherein the first determination is at least in part based on the first list and the second list.

19 . The method of claim 15 , the operations further comprising:

determining a calltaker for a return communication; and

transmitting communication information to the calltaker.

20 . The method of claim 15 , the operations further comprising:

determining the telephone number and a location of the first communication.
