CSV format

This project provides ip to location database in csv format.

Country csv format

ip_range_start, ip_range_end, country_code

City csv format

ip_range_start, ip_range_end, country_code, state1, state2, city, postcode, latitude, longitude, timezone

country_code

country_code is the two-letter code defined in ISO 3166-1 alpha-2. You can get the country name, capital, continent, currency, languages, etc. from the country_code by Countries Database in JSON, CSV, SQL format.

ip address format

ip_range_start and ip_range_end is ip address.

ipv4: The csv line 1.0.0.0,1.0.0.255,AU means that ip addresses between 1.0.0.0 and 1.0.0.255 inclusive are AU country_code.
ipv4-num: The csv line 16777216,16777471,AU means that ip addresses between 1.0.0.0 and 1.0.0.255 inclusive are AU country_code. (16777216 is the number format of the ip address 1.0.0.0)
ipv6: The csv line 2001:200::,2001:200:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff,JP means that ip addresses between 2001:200:: and 2001:200:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff inclusive are JP country_code.
ipv6-num: The csv line 42540528726795050063891204319802818560,42540528806023212578155541913346768895,JP means that ip addresses between 2001:200:: and 2001:200:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff inclusive are JP country_code. (42540528726795050063891204319802818560 is the number format of the ip address 2001:200::)

Please be careful when using ipv6 and ipv6-num in your program. The numerical value exceeds 32bit unsigned integer, so you need to use 64bit unsigned integer.

Databases referenced in this project

When merging multiple database, set the front database above back one. (ex. geo-whois-asn-...csv is created by merging 3 database with GeoFeed > Whois > ASN.)

ASN database [Update: Daily]

Created by merging 5 RIP (afrinic, apnic, arin, lacnic, ripe ncc) IP-ASN database. ASN (Autonomous System Number) is a unique number assigned to an Autonomous System (AS) by the IANA.

GeoFeed database [Update: Daily]

Created by merging GeoFeed database from OpenGeoFeed.

Whois database [Update: Daily]

Created by merging 5 RIP provided WHOIS database. There are some inconsistencies between 5 RIP.

iptoasn.com^♣ database [Update: Hourly]

You can download hourly updated database in tsv format from original site. This is licensed under a Public Domain Dedication and Licence v1.0. There are some differences from above ASN database.

If you need better accuracy or no attribution or daily updates, please use the Commercial Version of db-ip.

GeoLite2^♥ database [Update: Weekly]

GeoLite2 is created by MaxMind. The license of GeoLite2 is written in GEOLITE2_LICENSE and End User License Agreement (EULA) is written in GEOLITE2_EULA. Please carefully read the GEOLITE2_LICENSE and GEOLITE2_EULA files, if you use these database. This package comes with certain restrictions and obligations, most notably:

If you need better accuracy, please use the commercial version GeoIp2.

Which database is recommended to use?

Of course, it depends on your use case. But the above list is too long, thus, we write down the recommendation.

If you need postcode or timezone, geolite2-city is the one.
If you need city data with CC-BY License, dbip-city is the one.
If you need country database with Public Domain, we recommend geo-whois-asn-country database.
