摘要

Methods are disclosed for using an Internet server with access to a data base of PSAP (Public Safety Answering Point) jurisdiction boundaries and telephone numbers to track the location of a wireless communication device and to determine a PSAP telephone number to call to request emergency services at the location of said wireless communication device using telephone company provided location information. Methods are disclosed for establishing conference call connections between a person, a PSAP and a remote wireless communication device. Also disclosed are methods for establishing an Explicit Call Transfer call connection that redirects a call from a person to a wireless communication device to the telephone of a PSAP having jurisdiction over the location of said remote wireless communication device. Alzheimer tracking devices, offender monitoring devices, medical alert notification devices, satellite tracking devices and child safety telephone embodiments of the current invention are also disclosed.

主权项

1. A method providing a means whereby an Internet server with access to a satellite communication device via a satellite communication network can determine the GPS latitude and longitude location of said satellite communication device and use said GPS latitude and longitude location to query a data base of PSAP jurisdiction boundaries and telephone numbers to determine a telephone number of a PSAP to call to request emergency services at the location of said satellite communication device, comprising:
a. a person accessing an Internet server configured to track and map the location of a satellite communication device via a satellite communication network; b. said person requesting the current location of said satellite communication device; c. said Internet server transmitting a location query to said satellite communication device via said satellite communication network; d. said satellite communication device answering said location query by transmitting its GPS latitude and longitude location to said Internet server and said Internet server publishing said GPS location in map format for viewing by said person; e. said person viewing said mapped location information, reaching a determination that emergency services are needed at the location of said satellite communication device and requesting the Internet server to determine a PSAP telephone number to call to request said emergency services; f. said Internet server accessing a data base of PSAP jurisdiction boundaries and telephone numbers, inputting the GPS latitude and longitude location of said satellite communication device; said data base determining the telephone number of a PSAP having jurisdiction over said GPS latitude and longitude location and said Internet server publishing said PSAP telephone number for viewing by said person; g. said person calling said data base provided PSAP number, establishing a call connection with a PSAP call taker, explaining the nature of the emergency and requesting emergency services at the location of said satellite communication device.
