ANNAPOLIS, Md. and ANAHEIM, Calif., Aug.
14, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- TeleCommunication Systems,
Inc. (TCS) (NASDAQ: TSYS), a world leader in highly reliable and
secure mobile communication technology, today announced that it
will be presenting the latest advances in public safety solutions
at APCO 2013 the 79th Annual Conference & Exposition,
August 18-21, 2013 in Anaheim, CA. TCS invites attendees to
experience TCS' public safety and security technologies at booth
#1625. These include:
Public Safety Solutions:
- Next Generation 9-1-1 (NG9-1-1): An
end-to-end, standards-compliant NENA i3 NG9-1-1 system that
combines TCS' ESINet and call handling solution with powerful GIS
tool suites and related NG9-1-1 system components and
services. This solution was the first to comply with the NENA
i3 specification and supports the interconnection of
telecommunications operators in both legacy public safety answering
points (PSAPs) and emerging NG9-1-1 public safety
jurisdictions.
- microDATA GIS and Mapping Solutions:
A mature GIS product and tools suite, consisting of
comprehensive training programs; large, highly scalable GIS data
gathering and consolidation capabilities; and the microDATA
"xTracker™" product, a best-in-class desktop mapping display for
use on third-party computer-aided dispatch and call-handling
systems.
- Cybersecurity for NG9-1-1: An integrated,
end-to-end portfolio of mission-critical cybersecurity services and
training, ESP™ Cyber Solutions for Public Safety protects the
public safety organizations of all types and sizes from
ever-evolving persistent threats.
- SMS9-1-1: An award-winning. Web
browser-based graphical user interface that PSAPs can utilize to
manage multiple SMS9-1-1 sessions, GEM 9-1-1™ is a feature-rich,
easy-to-deploy service that enables PSAPs with IP connectivity to
receive and respond to text messages from the public. It is
compliant with the J-STD-110 Joint
ATIS/TIA Native SMS to 9-1-1 Requirements & Architecture
Specification and enables PSAPs to transition to a NG9-1-1
infrastructure that supports text, pictures and video.
- TCS Voice over LTE 9-1-1 (VoLTE9-1-1): An
emergency communications service that enables 4G/LTE carriers to
provide both 9-1-1 call routing and originating coarse/precise
location information, including the 10-digit callback number, to
PSAPs via an all-LTE environment, allowing carriers to potentially
reclaim or repurpose 3G spectrum.
- Ready9-1-1™: A portable, deployable
satellite communications solution to restore 9-1-1 call-taking
services and remain operational throughout any emergency; the ease
of set-up and configuration of this compact, scalable solution
allows trained call-takers to stay focused on serving the community
and ensuring public safety.
