Next Generation 911 (NG911) is a secure Internet Protocol (IP) based system, utilizing high speed data connectivity capable of receiving information to include voice, text messages, pictures and videos. A statewide NG911 system once implemented will also allow for seamless information sharing between citizens and 911 centers.
