A Public Safety Access Point (PSAP) administration system is provided for
safely modifying data in a PSAP database. The system includes a GUI, a
storage system, and a processing system. The processing system logs
changes to a data portion and defines modified data fields and unmodified
data fields. The processing system reads out and stores a safe copy of
the data portion from the PSAP database. The processing system writes the
data portion to the PSAP database after reading the safe copy. The
processing system reads out a verification copy of the data portion
written to the PSAP database and compares the unmodified data fields of
the safe copy to the unmodified data fields of the verification copy. The
processing system generates an alarm if the unmodified data fields of the
safe copy are not identical to the unmodified data fields of the
verification copy.
