Automatic Number Identification (ANI) is a feature of a telecommunications network. It automatically determines the origination telephone number of toll calls for billing purposes. For 911 systems, the ANI identifies the calling party and may be used as the callback number. Colloquially, ANI is commonly referred to as the calling party number.
