From a Ben Tanner article at TMCNet and Digital Media Europe:
Alcatel Alenia Space (AAS) will demonstrate the first emergency service based on EGNOS in Lisbon, Portugal, tomorrow. EGNOS is a precursor of Galileo, which will eventually provide navigation and location-based services (LBS) across Europe.
AAS will demonstrate a LBS solution which will enable the Portuguese National Service for Fire and Civil Protection (SNBPC) in Lisbon to locate emergency calls from mobile phones to more efficiently guide its team's rescue operations. The solution coordinates fire trucks, resources and individual fire fighters during difficult interventions.
Do we have anything similar here in Australia?
