What improvements in Indianas E911 system are planned?
The deployment of E911 requires the development of new technologies and upgrades to local 911 PSAPs, as well as coordination among public safety agencies, wireless carriers, technology vendors, equipment manufacturers, local exchange carriers, and the Indiana Wireless E911 Advisory Board. The FCC established a four-year rollout schedule for Phase II, beginning October 1, 2001 and to be completed by December 31, 2005. The board currently meets with local government leaders and county 911 authorities as well as several wireless carriers on a regular basis to review and discuss system upgrade progress.
