ENHANCED ELEVATION DETECTION FOR EMERGENCY RESPONSE SYSTEMS

At an emergency response system, a first location including a latitude and a longitude at which a first device is located is received. At an emergency response system, an air pressure reading measured by the first device is received. Using the air pressure reading and a mean sea-level barometric mea...

Zusammenfassung:At an emergency response system, a first location including a latitude and a longitude at which a first device is located is received. At an emergency response system, an air pressure reading measured by the first device is received. Using the air pressure reading and a mean sea-level barometric measurement, a first elevation of a device is computed. Using the first location, a corresponding street address is computed. Using the street address and the first elevation, a floor number is computed. The street address and the floor number are transmitted to a second device.
