I'm going to search: host geo-positioning by IP address in the global Internet using the Binance crypto exchange as an example


The article discusses the methods of mapping network interfaces by IP address using the Binance crypto exchange API service as an example. Geo-positioning is based on distance-time models for converting round-trip time (RTT) to a distance and determining the approximate location of the network interface.


It is very important for modern electronic services to know about the geographical location of customers for the "fine" settings of their marketing processes. Different techniques of users' location are widely used, based on binding to mobile base stations and Wi-Fi access points . However, there are a number of other tasks for the solution of which it is necessary to know the geolocation not of the user himself, but of the server and its network interface. Services such as MaxMind (the undisputed industry leader) are widely known to the public (you can also read here), but on the whole, there is little open-source material on the technological issues of the global host location by its IP address. In this article, we will talk about some solutions in this subject area and share the results of our research.
