The Aggregation Point
A public place for NG9-1-1 practitioners to compare notes, ask specific questions, and share useful work.
Current state Open to read
The idea
Someone solves a difficult problem. The answer gets buried in a vendor call, a conference conversation, or a document that never leaves one agency. Then the next person starts over.
I wanted that knowledge to have a public memory.
Why it exists
The people building and maintaining Next Generation 911 systems encounter many of the same problems in different places. They need somewhere to compare what works, including the oddly specific questions that never make it into a conference presentation.
What I built
The Aggregation Point is a vendor-neutral discussion community for people who build, maintain, troubleshoot, and depend on NG9-1-1 GIS data. It has room for questions, working examples, scripts, tools, and the reasoning behind a decision.
It has its own identity and rules. It should be useful to someone who never uses a Groundtruth 911 product.
Where it stands
The community is open. Anyone can read; posting requires an account. The first public tool I shared there was the NENA Version Conversion Tool. I hope other people bring the small things they made because they were tired of doing something by hand.
Join the conversation
Ask the weird question. Share the thing that saved you an afternoon. Write the answer down where someone else can find it.
