Where does the FCC regulation say you need to map it to a specific floor? The carrier just has to say where the person is, not how to get to them. They don't have to provide navigation directions to the EMS crew do they? Seems to me like just giving an elevation and coordinates would be compliant.

So, it would seem knowing the floor number would be super helpful (though maybe not a regulatory requirement as you say.)
