It offers wide-area coverage for Africa, Antarctica, Asia, Australia, Europe, North America, and South America.
Why use DOTS IP Validation?
The combination of multi-source triangulation of location, and outstanding anonymous proxy detection, make DOTS IP Validation among the top geolocation solutions.

What does it do?
DOTS IP Validation is the only geolocation service that calculates an IP’s locations by triangulation of multiple data sources in real time. This technique yields outstanding coverage and leading accuracy for IP addresses worldwide.
