Our geolocation data set covers the whole IPv4 and IPv6 address spaces with more than 2 million unique locations in 215,000+ cities worldwide. It is interoperable with popular third party geographic services such as the Geonames open database.


It only takes a few minutes to add IP geolocation awareness to your application. Our API uses RESTful semantics supported by all major development platforms, and we offer free open-source API query libraries and CSV import tools.


The DB-IP Lite databases are subsets of the commercial database with reduced coverage and accuracy. Lite IP address location database downloads are updated monthly and distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License.


These databases are created and maintained by third parties, and thus, the location data for the IP addresses are only as good as the company that manages the data. Some companies acquire their data through data mining, and others get more accurate data by polling users. Depending on the provider you choose, the data you are provided could be collected via either method.


There are a wide variety of different services available from which to buy IP geolocation data. When looking at these services, there are a variety of differentiators that make some providers better, and worse than others. Some of these services might be more expensive than a small business would like, and some are lacking regarding accuracy and ease of use.


There are some free IP geolocation database providers out there that you can choose from. These services offer a geo IP database for free, but that comes with sacrificing other features that you might want in an IP to location database. These services will be comparable to, but less accurate than their paid counterparts. If they are API based they will also most likely have low bandwidth restrictions, limiting the number of requests that you can make with them.


Depending on the project free vs paid IP geolocation databases will have different strengths and weaknesses. A paid database will come with more frequent updates and better data accuracy. It will also be easier for you to get support if you have special requirements for your application.






Free options are lovely for prototyping but can be hard to place a lot of trust in for more complex projects. The API might work, but will have a request cap, or will limit requests to so many per minute. Or the database might only really be useful at the country level. Cost comparison of Geolocation IP Databases.


For example, if you have multiple versions of your application across different platforms, you might prefer an API instead of a database because making the database available to each application version will require either maintaining separate versions of the same database or creating the API yourself.


When choosing whether or not to self-host the IP geolocation info you need it is essential to consider the benefits, advantages, and caveats of using an API or hosting the data yourself. Most importantly because depending on how vital this information is to your application, the wrong choice could have some massive implications for your business.


An obvious use case for an IP geolocation database is to customise content based on the location the visitor is viewing the page from. This might include things like adjusting the currency on your pricing page to displaying the right options to a user in a drop-down.


If your business needs to know where a visitor is from to display appropriately updated information around its products or services, an IP geolocation database might be the answer. This is a great way to get the location of your visitor and change which page gets displayed to them.


Your business could have just three locations or as many as one hundred locations. The value-adds would be the same. If you can provide visitors with information about the location that serves them, that enhances their experience on the web. One great way to ensure that relevant information to them is by using an IP geolocation database.


Using location information to serve targeted ads is a great way to increase revenue as a publisher. Ad networks like Google Adsense usually handle this themselves, but if you wanted to help your native ads and provide this functionality to your advertisers, an IP geolocation service is a great way to get things done.


If you have weblogs that you store and would like to get more information from those logs, an IP geolocation data service might be able to help. You might use this service to create the dashboards that could tell you more about where your visitors are coming from. This could also be used to show information about where login attempts are coming from. A business with a competent development team might notice that their US-based business gets a lot of login attempts from China. With an IP geolocation data service, you would be able to see that information as well as act on it by banning the offending region in question if you like.


Learning more about your users, and about how people from different regions use your site is a significant advantage when it comes to using an IP geolocation data provider to help provide more information about your website visitors.


DRM online is a particularly useful use case for an IP geolocation database. It will most likely also require a high degree of certainty and accuracy. You want to make sure that you do not run afoul of any studio licencing restrictions and make yourself vulnerable to massive fines or breaches of contract.


If you need to update the data in your self-hosted IP database you should be able to redownload the data from your provider. Some providers provide free updates for a limited period so you will also need to make sure you have an active subscription or are in that grace period for receiving updates to your data.


DB-IP updates their free databases once a month, and their commercial databases every day. Matomo can be set to auto update the geo databases every week or every month. The geolocation databases automatic updates are executed by the Matomo Archiving script.


The IP address that you specify in the ip-address-fieldname argument, is looked up in a database. Fields from that database that contain location information are added to each event. The setting of the allfields argument determines which fields are added to the events.


Through Splunk Web, you can update the .mmdb file that ships with the Splunk software. The file you update it with can be a copy of one of the following two files. Only those two files are supported. To use these two files, you must have a license for the GeoIP2 City database.


The iplocation command supports IPv6 lookup through IP geolocation functionality. In the following example, iplocation looks up the specified IP address in the default geolocation database file to determine where it is located.


The server side solutions can only identify the location of the ISP that your visitor is using. Using the navigator.geolocation object is JavaScript can provide the exact location of your visitor if their browser is on a mobile device that has the ability to work out its current location.


here is how I did it. I use the javascript to get the users geolocation(I tried on firefox, accuracy is within 10 meters). then use ajax to link to a php file and the ajax code pass the geolocation values to php, then php pass the geolocation value to database.


Geo-location is an approach where device determines their location and make use of a geo-location database to obtain information on technical and operational conditions of spectrum usage at their location.

 

 This approach was first discussed in the context of white space device in the Project Team (PT) SE43 during 2011-2012. Following ECC deliverables were developed since 2011:


In the course of the preparations of the ECC Report 236, it was decided to collect and maintain information related to practice of database usage in various countries in other regions (read more here).

 

 The geo-location database approach was assessed in various CEPT Project Teams with the view to foster coexistence between different services and applications. 

 

 Current situation in CEPT


PT FM 44 (satellite communications) studied usage of geo-location database approach to enhance the coexistence between the Fixed Service (FS) and uncoordinated FSS earth stations in the band 17.7-19.7 GHz. Information extracted from geo-location database allows satellite operators and satellite service providers to identify the frequencies at which the receivers of FSS earth stations would not be subject to interference from Fixed Service links at a given location, based on knowledge of FS deployment. As a result of this study FM44 developed ECC Report 241 containing information from administrations on national FS frequency assignments in its Annex. As per Decides 6 of ERC/DEC(00)07, administrations are invited to provide FS assignment information to the ECO. Relevant information sources from administrations on national FS frequency assignments are available here (this table will be maintained by the ECO). 

 

 FM44 in their work collaborated with participants of the FP7 Project CoRaSat ( _en.html) which aimed at investigating, developing, and demonstrating cognitive radio techniques in satellite communication systems for spectrum sharing.
