The communication request is routed to a PSAP from a third party telematics service provider. The TSP can contact the PSAP through dedicated 911 trunk or ALI supported telephone system. Communications types to the PSAP could include automatically generated incident location, automatically generated incident location with data, or voice communications with automatically generated incident location with data.
