Next Generation 911 (abbreviated as NG911) is an initiative aimed at updating the 911 service infrastructure in the United States and Canada to improve public emergency communications services. NG911 requires carriers to implement emergency text messaging services (also known as "text-to-911") through which users can send messages, images, video, and location data to the 911 call center (referred to as a public safety answering point, or PSAP).
