location of connections

[jahlxx]

Hi.

 

For securyty, monitor a statistical questions, I log every connection to my apps, and store the source IP in a log file using UniSession.RemoteIP.

 

Is there any way to get the location of the IP (country, state, etc.)?

 

This could be useful for us.

 

Thanks in advance.

i don't use it in delphi (i used it in apache web server) but you could search implementation of GeoIp in delphi.

Thanks.

 

Looking for info about GeoIP, as you commented, I've found this: http://www.ipinfodb.com/ip_location_api.php

 

Tested, and wotking fine.

 

Thanks,

There are a number of Geolocation APIs - Some free

e.g. a 'Get' to  http://freegeoip.net/json/ipAddressHere

 

returns this json [N.B.  It's not that geographically accurate but for me it's the correct country and within 10-15  miles!]

 

{

  "ip": "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx",

  "country_code": "GB",

  "country_name": "United Kingdom",

  "region_code": "ENG",

  "region_name": "England",

  "city": "Bromley",

  "zip_code": "BR1",

  "time_zone": "Europe/London",

  "latitude": 51.4,

  "longitude": 0.05,

  "metro_code": 0

}
