I've used Maxmind in the past and it is a very capable tool... And that was a few years ago. I hope that it's only gotten better since then. Good luck! --Joel On Feb 9, 2011, at 1:24 PM, Peter Murray peter.mur...@lyrasis.org wrote: GeoIP from MaxMind will do the trick, I think: http://www.maxmind.com/app/api Peter On Feb 9, 2011, at 1:10 PM, Fowler, Jason wrote: plug Code4lib 2011 is awesome! /plug Any suggestions for how to take ip addresses in the ezproxy audit logs and geo locate them on a Google Map?
