IP2Location Lookup Tool : Software utility that enables you to embed a Java component into your project that is capable of displaying geolocation information for an IP address lookup



IP2Location Lookup Tool is a software utility that enables you to embed a Java component into your project specially designed to provide IP geolocation information.The component offers support for both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, and it can display the country, region, city, ZIP code and time zone, as well as the latitude and longitude for each IP address lookup.It is important to note that this utility relies on an IP address database that needs to be downloaded separately, as well as the IP2Location Java component that needs to be purchased.Additionally, in order to use this tool, the Java Development Kit (JDK) needs to be available on your computer.Once you are certain that all the prerequisites have been accounted for, you need to create a Java Swing GUI project. The included JAR file contains the IP lookup module that will be embedded in a JPANEL component.Next, you can open the Palette option and select “SWING/AWT components, and then add the component from the “IP2Location_Lookup_tool.jar” file.Finally, the component needs to be added into the Bean folder of your JAVA IDE. You should now be able to drag and drop the component into your Swing GUI project.All the necessary steps are detailed in the included documentation, along with the software requirements and other important notes. Experienced developers can follow these instructions to streamline the process of embedding the component into their projects, and those who have limited experience with these operations can take advantage of the user manual to get started on the right track.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What is the database format?
    We provide two different database formats (CSV and BIN).
    The first database format is known as Comma Separated Values (CSV). It is a text file and all fields are separated by a comma with double quote in each field. Each individual row is a database record.
    The second database format is known as Binary (BIN). It is a binary file with database information. Developers access to the BIN files using IP2Location API available in multiple languages.

    How do I automate the IP2Location LITE database download?
    You can automate the IP2Location LITE database using download client or common HTTP applications such as wget or curl. We update IP2Location databases on the first day of the calendar month. Please download the database once a month during a random day from the first week of calendar month to avoid network congestion. We will disable any LITE account if account sharing or massive download is detected.

    How do I convert an IPv4 Address to an IP Number?
    IP address (IPV4) is divided into 4 sub-blocks. Each sub-block has a different weight number each powered by 256. IP number is being used in the database because it is more efficient to search between a range of numbers in a database.

    How do I convert an IPv6 Address to an IP Number?
    IP address (IPv6) is divided into 8 groups of four hexadecimal digits with a colon as a group separator. Each group has a different weight number each powered by 65536. IP number is being used in the database because it is more efficient to search between a range of numbers in a database.

    How do I retrieve the country data from the IP Number?
    Firstly, convert the IP address to IP number format. Search IP-Country Database using IP number to match a record that has the IP Number between the Beginning IP Number and the Ending IP Number.
    For example, IP Address "72.77.138.60" is "1213041212" in IP Number. It matched the following recordset in the database.
    "1213041208","1213041215","US","UNITED STATES"

    What is the minus sign "-" in country name or country code?
    The IP2Location will display the "-" in country field when the IP address range is still unallocated to any countries. It is also known as reserved IP address range.

    How do I use this database?
    First, import this database into your MSSQL, MS-ACCESS, PL/SQL, MYSQL or other RDMS. Use an SQL query to get the matching recordset.
    Example of SQL Query (MSSQL)
    SELECT [COUNTRY NAME COLUMN], [REGION NAME COLUMN], [CITY NAME COLUMN], [LATITUDE COLUMN], [LONGITUDE COLUMN], [ZIP CODE COLUMN], [TIME ZONE COLUMN], [ISP COLUMN], [DOMAIN NAME COLUMN], [NETSPEED COLUMN], [IDD CODE COLUMN], [AREA CODE COLUMN], [WEATHER STATION CODE COLUMN], [WEATHER STATION NAME COLUMN], [MCC COLUMN], [MNC COLUMN], [BRAND NAME COLUMN]
    FROM [IP-COUNTRY-REGION-CITY-LATITUDE-LONGITUDE-ZIPCODE-TIMEZONE-ISP-DOMAIN-NETSPEED-AREACODE-WEATHER-MOBILE TABLE]
    WHERE [SEARCH IP NO] BETWEEN [IP FROM COLUMN] AND [IP TO COLUMN]

    Example of SQL Query (MYSQL)
    SELECT [COUNTRY NAME COLUMN], [REGION NAME COLUMN], [CITY NAME COLUMN], [LATITUDE COLUMN], [LONGITUDE COLUMN], [ZIP CODE COLUMN], [TIME ZONE COLUMN], [ISP COLUMN], [DOMAIN NAME COLUMN], [NETSPEED COLUMN], [IDD CODE COLUMN], [AREA CODE COLUMN], [WEATHER STATION CODE COLUMN], [WEATHER STATION NAME COLUMN], [MCC COLUMN], [MNC COLUMN], [BRAND NAME COLUMN]
    FROM [IP-COUNTRY-REGION-CITY-LATITUDE-LONGITUDE-ZIPCODE-TIMEZONE-ISP-DOMAIN-NETSPEED-AREACODE-WEATHER-MOBILE TABLE]
    WHERE ([IP FROM COLUMN] <= [SEARCH IP NO]) AND ([IP TO COLUMN] >= [SEARCH IP NO])


    Will I receive monthly notification when the update is available?
    Yes, we will deliver the notification via email when the update is available in the download area.

    I want to download the commercial edition. What should I do now?
    You can upgrade from LITE edition under account area. We will generate an unique login/password to allow you to download the database for one year after we have processed your order.

    What do I get if I purchase the commercial edition?
    You will receive your login and password through email immediately after payment is authorized. You can use your credentials to download the database from our website at anytime. The database is in a ZIP compressed format to save your bandwidth and downloading time.

    How do I test the location using multiple IP address?
    LocaProxy provides multi-location HTTP proxies to help businesses test geolocation applications. This solution reduces the total cost of testing by supplying the Distributed Infrastructure as a Service.
