GeoIPis a technique allowing to locate a web user based on their IP address. Thus, thanks to the GeoIP, a company can display a geolocated content due to specific regulation associated to its activity sector.
This GeoIPfunctionality is integrated to Nameshield’s DNS Premium and in its global solution of domain name securing.
Definition. A form of geolocation, GeoIP refers to the method of locating a computer terminal's geographic location by identifying that terminal's IP address. Though GeoIP can pinpoint a terminal's location to a city, it requires the use of a GeoIP database as well as an understanding of APIs to implement correctly.
Starkly contrasting to geolocations, GeoIP uses a specific method to identify a user's location – the internet protocol address. Unlike geolocation, geolocation by IP does not reveal local-specific data or information, as it can only use the IP address information.
GeoIP Rules define the action that should do the extension if a visitor came from the specified country. Additionally, the extension can separate visitors by their Browser Locale or IP address.
Elasticsearch is a distributed, open-source search and analytics engine built on Apache Lucene and developed in Java. It started as a scalable version of the Lucene open-source search framework then added the ability to horizontally scale Lucene indices.
Geolocation is the process of pinpointing the physical location of a device or a user based on the IP address or other data sources. Geolocation can indicate the country, region, city, Zip Code, latitude, longitude, and/or time zone of the device.
For IPs located within the U.S., we estimate around an 80% accuracy at the state/region level, and a 66% accuracy for cities (within a 50km radius of that city).
Unlike the GeoIP Legacy web service, the GeoIP2 web services use HTTP basic authentication over TLS rather than passing the license key as a query parameter. When an error occurs, we now return an appropriate HTTP error code instead of simply returning a 200 with an error in the document.
"Geoblocking restricts access to online content based on the user's geographical location," said Peter Yu, the director of Texas A&M University's Center for Law and Property. You can think of geo-blocking in terms of school districts.
