Using a location sensor, a location including a latitude and a longitude of a device is determined. Using an air pressure sensor, a first elevation of a device is determined. Using the location, a corresponding street address is determined. Using the street address and the first elevation, a floor number is determined. The street address and the floor number are reported to an emergency response system.
