Thanks for the feedback Jon… I’ll post to NANOG next but thought I’d try here 
first.

Best

Hello Jason,

Unfortunately, there’s no magic bullet for IP geolocation. Updating your ARIN 
registration information with a local street address can sometimes work, but 
it’s not guaranteed to work for all geolocation sources – or, candidly, to work 
at all. Your best resource is likely to be a network operator’s forum like the 
NANOG mailing list. Other folks have no doubt had the same problems and may be 
able to offer you practical advice based on that experience. There are 
operators on this list as well, so they may be able to chime in with some info. 
It’s likely the solution will involve some combination of contacting large 
content providers and working with them to update information, doing the same 
with large IP geolocation providers, and potentially looking at other records 
that can be published that might be of use (routing registry data?). Also, it’s 
possible time passing may help. I see you published the reassignment 
information several months ago. In a perfect world, that would be picked up 
immediately, but it’s possible it may take a while for everyone out there to 
pick it up and use it.

Good luck!

Subject: [arin-tech-discuss] Geolocate data for allocated blocks

Hello,

I’m not sure if this is the right forum but I am seeking assistance in getting 
nets I’ve allocated to an office in another RIR region to properly update its 
geolocate data.  In this particular case, I have a net in use in India, but 
currently reflects Houston as its address although the allocation indicates 
otherwise.


Thanks
