SALI

Definition:

Standalone Automatic Location Identifier (ALI). Small (non‐national/regional) ALI system typically used by one to few
PSAPs. SALI systems may be as simple as a PC in the back room to a small ALI system which is downloaded periodically
(e.g., nightly or weekly) from a larger regional or national ALI database.
