20090077077 | Optimal selection of MSAG address for valid civic/postal address - A technique and apparatus to find an optimal MSAG-valid address in real time given an E9-1-1 caller's civic/postal address. Arrival at an accurate MSAG-valid address selection moves through as many as three well defined MSAG matching steps which may be performed sequentially, or in tandem. The three disclosed MSAG matching techniques include a Simple Match of an MSAG address, a historical data match for an MSAG address, and a pinned MSAG match performed using a commercial location engine. | 03-19-2009 |
20090092232 | House number normalization for master street address guide (MSAG) address matching - A technique and apparatus to allow a determination of an MSAG-valid address by use of normalized house numbers included in address entries in an MSAG Address data store, to facilitate the simple match of an input civic/postal address against entries in a MSAG data store based on the use of a normalization of the house numbers. The house number normalization allows for an easy lexicographical determination as to whether or not the input civic/postal house number falls with the range of house numbers in the MSAG data store. The inventive process and apparatus pre-stores normalized house number fields in an MSAG address data store, and then normalizes house numbers in a civic/postal address associated with an emergency call. The normalized numbers in the input civic/postal address associated with the emergency call are then lexicographically matched with normalized entries in an MSAG address data store. | 04-09-2009 |
