A Web Client Perspective on IP Geolocation Accuracy

2020 International Symposium on Networks, Computers and Communications (ISNCC), 2020
Geolocation of Internet addresses is widely used by content providers to tailor services and content to users and to restrict access to content. IP geolocation in practice typically relies on databases that include geographic information about individual addresses or address prefixes. Prior studies have assessed the accuracy of these databases by using

Investigating the Imprecision of IP Block-Based Geolocation

2007
The lack of adoption of a DNS-based geographic location service as proposed in RFC 1876 has lead to the deployment of alternative ways to locate Internet hosts. The two main alternatives rely either on active probing of individual hosts or on doing exhaustive tabulation of IP address ranges and their corresponding locations.

Network measurement based modeling and optimization for IP geolocation

Computer Networks, 2012
IP geolocation plays a critical role in location-aware network services and network security applications. Commercially deployed IP geolocation databases may provide outdated or incorrect location of Internet hosts due to slow record updates and dynamic IP address assignment by the ISPs.

Geolocating IP Addresses in Cellular Data Networks

2012
Smartphones connected to cellular networks are increasingly being used to access Internet-based services. Using data collected from smartphones running a popular location-based application, we examine IP address allocation in cellular data networks, with emphasis on understanding the applicability of IP-based geolocation techniques. Our dataset has GPS-

IP geolocation suspicious email messages

2013 21st Telecommunications Forum Telfor (TELFOR), 2013
As the Internet and electronic mail continue to be utilized by an ever increasing number of users, so does fraudulent and criminal activity via the Internet and email increase. The negative effects of cybercrime activities on the use of the Internet for e-business and secure communications increased interest in studying the factors that motivate these ...

Discovering Routers as Secondary Landmarks for Accurate IP Geolocation

2017 IEEE 86th Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC-Fall), 2017
IP geolocation determines geographic location by the IP address of Internet hosts. The physical location of Internet hosts is critical for many location-aware applications. Most geolocation methods are based on linear assumption of correlation between network latency and geographic distance on a large scale.

IP-Geolocation Mapping for Moderately Connected Internet Regions

IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems, 2013
Most IP-geolocation mapping schemes [14], [16], [17], [18] take delay-measurement approach, based on the assumption of a strong correlation between networking delay and geographical distance between the targeted client and the landmarks. In this paper, however, we investigate a large region of moderately connected Internet and find the delay-distance ...

Towards IP geolocation using delay and topology measurements

Proceedings of the 6th ACM SIGCOMM conference on Internet measurement, 2006
We present Topology-based Geolocation (TBG), a novel approach to estimating the geographic location of arbitrary Internet hosts. We motivate our work by showing that 1) existing approaches, based on end-to-end delay measurements from a set of landmarks, fail to outperform much simpler techniques, and 2) the error of these approaches is strongly ...

Mining the Web and the Internet for Accurate IP Address Geolocations

IEEE INFOCOM 2009, 2009
In this paper, we present Structon, a novel approach that uses Web mining together with inference and IP traceroute to geolocate IP addresses with significantly better accuracy than existing automated approaches. Structon is composed of three ideas which we realize in three corresponding steps. First, we extract geolocation information of Web server IP
