Hello and apologies for any cross-posting!
Does anyone know of a good, ideally free and open source, API for
getting a user's geography (or closest approximation) from their IP
address?
Thanks,
Catherine
Maxmind offers a free version of their database GeoIP (for download and
local use). Their web api is free for 25 hits a day.
If you want more hits, or a better more up to date database that you can
run locally then you pay.
I use their free GeoIP and GeoIP with my Awstats (web log analyzer) all
the time.
