DB-IP Lite

What it is

The free DB-IP city and ASN databases, rebuilt by DB-IP on the first of every month and installed here on the second. The city database places an address at country, region, city and coordinates and states the prefix the answer covers; the ASN database names the autonomous system and its operator. Operator-declared locations override it wherever a feed publishes one.

What it answers

In the IP response this source feeds country, region, city, latitude, longitude, network, asn, org. Every answer names the datasets it read in its sources block with the date each was synced, so the figure on this page and the one in an answer are the same figure.

curl https://spaw.co/api/v1/ip \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $SPAW_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"ip": "203.0.113.9"}'

How to read this page

A source names a network or an operator, never a person. An address inside one of these ranges tells you what the connection is — a cloud instance, a VPN exit, a gateway, a listed host — and nothing about who is behind it.
