What is IP Geolocation?!
IP geolocation is the mapping of an IP address to the geographic location of the internet from the connected device. By geographically mapping the IP address, it provides you with location information such as the country, state, city, zip code, latitude/longitude, ISP, area code, and other information.
- How accurate is IP Geolocation?
There are many different IP location databases in which you can pull from. Most vendors claim a 98% or higher accuracy. IP mapping to specific cities can sometimes vary slightly based upon the location of the nearest ISP provider's network hub.
- How does the IP lookup work?
ARIN's WHOIS service gives contact and registration information for the IP address lookup and is freely available to access. When a company acquires a block of IP addresses, a request is submitted and then those IPs are assigned to the requested ISP.
The IP geolocation data gets updated automatically based on the databases of the regional Internet registry (RIR). Manual updates are not possible.
