A Practical Guide to Geospatial Data Transformation for NG9-1-1

NG9-1-1 doesn’t fail because of technology. It fails because of bad, inconsistent, and unvalidated GIS data. This whitepaper shows how to fix that... before lives depend on it.

As NG9-1-1 standards and FCC transition rules take effect, public safety agencies, GIS teams, and telecom providers are under pressure to modernize fast. This guide breaks down exactly how to move from fragmented legacy data to authoritative, routable, NG9-1-1-ready geospatial information—without blowing up operations during the transition.

What You'll Learn:
  • Why NG9-1-1 success hinges on data quality, not infrastructure
  • How NENA i3, NENA-STA-006, CLDXF, LVF, and ECRF actually fit together (without the jargon headache)
  • Common GIS data gaps that cause misroutes, delays, and compliance risk
  • How states and agencies are using automation to replace brittle spreadsheets and manual QA
  • A clear, step-by-step roadmap to get GIS data NG9-1-1-ready now—not “eventually”
Who This is For:
  • PSAP & 9-1-1 Authorities responsible for routing accuracy and resilience
  • GIS Managers & Contributors maintaining address points, roads, and boundaries
  • State 9-1-1 Boards overseeing governance and compliance
  • Telecoms & OSPs facing FCC NG9-1-1 transition deadlines
About This Whitepaper:

This guide draws on real-world NG9-1-1 deployments across multiple U.S. states and introduces a modern, rules-based approach to GIS validation, aggregation, and provisioning—designed to scale across jurisdictions and evolve with changing standards.
