Abstract

See full text

A method, system, and medium are provided for generating a profile for public safety answering platforms (PSAP). The profile identifies media formats supported by the PSAPs at various cell sector locations maintained by a network provider. A network server selects a cell sector and generates a first test emergency services call and subsequent test emergency services calls. The test emergency services call is transmitted to a PSAP. During the session with the PSAP, the subsequent test emergency services calls are processed to determine mid-call support for additional multimedia formats or codecs. The PSAP generates responses that indicate whether the PSAP supports a multimedia format or codec identified in the test emergency services call or the subsequent test emergency services call. The PSAP transmits the responses to the network server for storage in the profile.
