NG9-1-1 offers much more than the current, voice only systems deployed today. Emerging NG 9-1-1 technology must keep pace with commercial technology and with the capabilities the citizens public safety serves. In addition, when considering a transition to NG9-1-1 systems, it is important to create an implementation plan based on operational needs and technical and financial realities. The presentation will discuss the need to approach the issue in a cooperative manner from both a technology and operations aspect.
