Whois & Analysis for reallyfreegeoip.org

In computing, geolocation software is software that is capable of deducing the geolocation of a person or object and perhaps their actual location.

Sometimes, the geolocation of an object is used to impute the location of its owner or user.

For example, on the Internet, the identification of a device's IP address can be used to determine the country and even the city and post/ZIP code, organization, or user the IP address has been assigned to, and then to determine an object's actual location.

Other methods include examination of a MAC address, image metadata, or credit card information.

The W3C Geolocation API is an effort by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) to standardize an interface to retrieve the geographical location information for a client-side device.

It defines a set of objects, ECMAScript standard compliant, that executing in the client application give the client's device location through the consulting of Location Information Servers, which are transparent for the application programming interface (API).

The most common sources of location information are IP address, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth MAC address, radio-frequency identification (RFID), Wi-Fi connection location, or device Global Positioning System (GPS) and GSM/CDMA cell IDs.

The location is returned with a given accuracy depending on the best location information source available.

In several fields, deprecation is the discouragement of use of some feature, design or practice; typically because it has been superseded or is no longer considered efficient, or safe – but without completely removing it or prohibiting its use.

A user is a person who uses a computer or network service.

Users generally use a system or a software product without the technical expertise required to fully understand it.

Power users use advanced features of programs, though they are not necessarily capable of computer programming and system administration.
