Geo-db-LiteCountry
GeoIP is a C library that enables the user to find the country that any IP address or hostname originates from. It uses a file based database that is accurate as of March 2003. This database simply contains IP blocks as keys, and countries as values. This database should be more complete and accurate than using reverse DNS lookups.
GeoLite Country is similar to the GeoIP Country database, but is slightly less accurate. Should you require greater accuracy, GeoIP Country is a drop-in replacement for GeoLite Country. We also offer a free geolocation database on a city level.
