xLoST Server

Selective IP 9-1-1 Routing at your fingertips

Providing NG9-1-1 call routing requires a location-to-service translation service that routes NG9-1-1 calls received with a civic or geodetic PIDF-LO (Presence Information Data Format-Location Object). You will need to:

• Relay 9-1-1 communications from nomadic IP devices to the correct 9-1-1 jurisdiction
• Relay a call at the PSAP on to the correct emergency service
  

Our NG9-1-1 Solution

microDATA’s xLoST (Location-to-ServiceTranslation) Server™ provides the query mechanism for multi-state, state or county public safety agencies to route 9-1-1 IP-based communications to the appropriate PSAP and emergency service. The xLoST™ web services perform a number of service requests centered on mapping locations and service Uniform Resource Names (URNs) to service Uniform Resource Locations (URLs).

xLoST Server™ meets NG9-1-1 challenges with these features:

• Ability to provide routing information for NG9-1-1 call location
• Identifies the correct PSAP from GIS map layers, so that the call may be routed to the appropriate emergency service agency
• Highly secure
• Validation of civic and geodetic locations
• Uses location values or references
