2 results about "Automatic number identification" patented technology

Automatic number identification (ANI) is a feature of a telecommunications network for automatically determining the origination telephone number on toll calls for billing purposes. Automatic number identification was originally created by AT&T Corporation for internal long distance charging purposes, eliminating the need for telephone operators to manually request the number of the calling party for a toll call.

Interoperability apparatus and methods for a cloud-based emergency data management system

A method implements; obtaining emergency call data from one or more functional elements of an emergency communication center (ECC) by an interoperability apparatus; sending the emergency data from the interoperability apparatus to a cloud-based emergency data management system; converting a portion of the emergency data into a data object at the cloud-based emergency data management system; providing the data object to an instance of a cloud-based application provided by the cloud-based emergency data management system, where the instance is executed using a browser on a computer located at the ECC, and the data object updates a map view within a graphical user interface provided by the instance; and providing update data from the cloud-based emergency data management system to a computer-aided-dispatch system using the interoperability apparatus. The emergency data includes: ANI / ALI (Automatic Number Identification / Automatic Location Identification) data, call detail record (CDR) data, AVL (Automatic Vehicle Location) data, and voice data.

Method and system for routing of inbound toll-free and tolled communications

ActiveUS12684072B2Toll-Free NumberTelecom network
Aspects of the present disclosure involve systems, methods, computer program products for consolidating toll-free and / or tolled features of two or more telecommunications networks. The networks may be consolidated via an Enhanced Feature Server (EFS) deployed in a telecommunications network. The EFS may be configured to receive a toll-free and / or tolled communication and route the communication based on the dialed toll-free number and a carrier identification code (CIC) associated with the communication, or based on the dialing number and a CIC. Routing the communication based at least on the CIC associated with the communication allows the telecommunications network to consolidate a redundant network from the telecommunications network. In circumstances where a CIC is not associated with a communication, the EFS may request a data schema from a toll-free database, or from an automatic number identification (ANI) database, and determine a CIC based on an analysis of the data schema.
