City of Gatineau CNS project Data acquisition and operational architecture
Page 2 CNS proposed architecture Use internal software to manage the 911 phone number database. Use in-house phone capabilities to issue the CNS calls (PRI lines). Utilize GIS functionalities to validate address structure found in the 911 phone number database by creating aliases. Providing strict guidelines and user profiles for CNS services.
Page 3 Type of emergencies to use CNS Any situation that may effect the life, the security or the health of Gatineau’s population. Storms Chemical plume / contamination Water related hazard Extreme weathers (cold or hot) Epidemic / Pandemic Other life or health threatening situations Other security measures
Page 4 CNS – Step 1 Reception / Validation of 911 database First time Reception of database estimated to more than numbers for Gatineau from 3 sources (Bell / Videotron / Rogers) but mainly from Bell. Phone number and address is sufficient. Validation of address structure and creation of aliases. on the address GIS geo-positioning on the address and not the X-Y coordinates provided by some carriers. Addition to 911 database (Street number). Creation of a new GIS layer for the phone numbers.
Page 5 CNS – Step 1 Reception / Validation of 911 database Database update Reception of new, modified or deleted numbers from the 3 same sources on a daily or weekly basis. Automated mechanism for validation of address structure and creation of aliases. Automated GIS geo-positioning Automated addition to database (Street number) Adding the numbers to the GIS layer
Page 6 CNS – Step 2 Extraction and messaging Defining the sector Extracting the numbers from the GIS layer. Issuing a phone list Creating a message Include the message to the list Generate de CNS calls (locally or remotely).

Page 8 Examples Our street structure Note Cities are the only governing bodies for issuing and naming streets. We have to cleanse the 911 database each time data is downloaded before it can be use in a CNS system with GIS address positioning. Therefore we request that the 911 database (addresses and numbers only) be maintained locally in our GIS system.

Page 17 Examples Results After calls are issued, a detailed and statistical report are generated for every CNS. By providing the 911 database on a regular basis without the names, we believe that the confidentiality issue is addressed.
