GeolocationWebService

GeolocationWebService is a handy tool for tracking down information about an IP address and its geolocation. If you’re tired of jumping between different websites, this desktop solution has got your back!

Easy Access to Geolocation Info

You can find tons of online services that give you geolocation details, but if you want something more reliable, GeolocationWebService offers a great option. It uses free data sources, but keep in mind that you'll need to have an offline database ready for your queries.

Setting Up the Database

If you’re unsure how to set up the offline database, don’t worry! You can check out the detailed instructions on the developer’s page here. Depending on whether you're working with IPv4 or IPv6 protocols, you'll need to download the right CSV file from the location database.

User-Friendly Web Interface

To make things easier, there's a web interface packed with examples that you can launch straight from the service manager. Just keep in mind that running this service needs at least 2 GB of free disk space. If you're looking to integrate it into any other apps, using the JSON endpoint is highly recommended.

Map Representation Features

If you're interested in getting a visual representation of your geolocation data on a map, you can use the map endpoint available in this service. Plus, when it comes to zooming features, just know that it handles one request at a time. This helps keep resource use low and efficient!

This way, GeolocationWebService makes gathering IP address info super straightforward and user-friendly!
