## What it is
A collection of IP-to-location databases (country, city, ASN) in CSV and MMDB formats, aggregated from sources like GeoLite2, db-ip lite, iptoasn, GeoFeed, and Whois. It is updated regularly and distributed via GitHub Releases and npm.

## Use cases
- look up the country of an IP address
- map IP ranges to autonomous system numbers
- geolocate visitor IPs in a web server or API
- build an IP-to-country lookup without licensing GeoLite2 directly
- filter traffic by country or ASN
- convert IP databases between CSV and MMDB formats

## When to choose
- you need free, regularly updated IP geolocation data in CSV or MMDB format
- you want multiple upstream sources aggregated with per-dataset licensing clarity
- you need IPv4 and IPv6 coverage including numeric and CIDR variants

## When to avoid
- you need street-level or postal-code accuracy
- you require a vendor SLA or commercial license support
- your project cannot accept multi-license open-data terms

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: active
- function: database, search-engine, developer-tools
- domain: networking, security, analytics, developer-tools
- platform: cross-platform, cli
