SYNOPSIS

  use Geo::IP;

  my $record = $gi->record_by_addr('65.15.30.247');

DESCRIPTION

Geo::IP::Record represents objects containing location information returned by the GeoIP City database.

Note at this time only a commercial version - GeoIP City Premium - is available from MaxMind. The database that is distributed free of charge is the GeoIP Standard Country, and is not compatible with this API.

At some point in the future, we may offer a free version - GeoIP City Standard - based only on public data sources such as RIR Whois databases.
