[WORK IN PROGRESS]

Hyvor Point is an open-source IP geolocation database. The data is built from ground up using many public sources (WHOIS data, etc.) and our own methods. The database is updated monthly, and is available in CSV and MMDB formats. Our goal is to provide a highly accurate free and open-source IP geolocation database for developers.

There are no signups, no cloud services, no API keys, no rate limits. Just download the database and use it in your applications. It's that simple.

Visit point.hyvor.com for more information.

We provide client libraries for popular programming languages to make it easy to use the database in your applications. All of these libraries handle the database files and provide easy-to-use functions to get the location of an IP address.

• Python
• Node.js
• PHP
• Java
• Ruby

from hyvor_point import IP

ip = IP('34.49.208.18')
location = ip.location()

print(location.country)
print(location.state)
print(location.city)
print(location.latitude)
print(location.longitude)
print(location.continent)
print(location.timezone)
