## Dataset
-The data used to create an IP to location index is publicly available from the 5 [Regional Internet Registries (RIRs)](https://whatismyipaddress.com/rir)
+The data used to create an IP to location index is publicly available from the [Internet routing registries (IRRs)](https://www.irr.net/docs/list.html) which includes the [Regional Internet Registries (RIRs)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regional_Internet_registry)
-Here is the list of the 5 RIRs.
-
-- [ARIN](https://www.arin.net/)
-- [LACNIC](https://www.lacnic.net/)
-- [AFRINIC](https://afrinic.net/)
-- [RIPE NCC](https://www.ripe.net/)
-- [APNIC](https://www.apnic.net/)

-These Regional Internet Registries contain records that link IP address ranges to organisations along with some metadata.
-It is not always possible to extract meaningful data from these registries because they are not normalised.
+The data are formatted following [RPSL](https://www.irr.net/docs/rpsl.html) specifications and contain records that link IP address ranges to organisations along with some metadata.
## Generate the index
-The workflow executed in the following command contains multiple steps.
+```
+baremaps workflow execute --file examples/ip-to-location/workflow.js
+```
-- Download and decompress the data from the RIRs
+The workflow executed in the above command does the following:
+- Download and decompress the data from the IRRs
- Download and create a Geocoding index (see the [Geocoding](/documentation/examples/geocoding/) example)
- Iterate over every entry in the registries to extract the IP address ranges and the associated metadata to query the Geocoding index and extract a latitude and a longitude.
-```
-baremaps workflow execute --file examples/ip-to-location/workflow.js
-```
## Serve the data
-The following command will serve the Geonames index over HTTP in a simple web application.
-
```
baremaps iploc serve --database iploc.db --port 9000
```
-Go to [http://localhost:9000/](http://localhost:9000/) to see it in action.
