PSAP & 911 public data sources.

A curated directory of authoritative public sources for PSAP contact data, 911 outage reporting frameworks, and public-safety telecommunications standards. Use these directly — that's what they're there for.

What this page is — and isn't. Greenway curates this list as a public service for carriers, PSAPs, EMS centers, and operators working in the 911 ecosystem. We do not maintain a master national PSAP database, and we do not republish or warrant the accuracy of the data hosted at any linked source. Please consult the original publishers for the authoritative version.

Section 3

Industry associations & advocacy

Groups that publish standards, training, advocacy positions, and operator-to-operator coordination.

State & territorial 911 boards

Most US states maintain their own 911 coordinator or board with authoritative contact information for PSAPs operating in that state. These are the closest thing to an authoritative source for current PSAP contact data at the operational level.

Working on a state-specific buildout? The National 911 Program (911.gov) maintains a directory of state 911 administrators. Contact information for each state-level coordinator is published there.

Need a service that operationalizes this?

Greenway's Disaster Recovery as a Service operates the PSAP contact database you provide, monitors 911 call paths in real time, and dispatches FCC-22-88-aligned PSAP notifications inside the regulatory window.
