IP2Location IP Geolocation C Library
IP2Location IP Geolocation C library enables the user to find the country, region, city, coordinates, ZIP code, time zone, ISP, domain name, connection type, area code, weather, MCC, MNC, mobile brand name, elevation and usage type that any IP address or hostname originates from. It has been optimized for speed and memory utilization. Developers can use the API to query all IP2Location™ binary databases for IPv4 and IPv6 address.
