[OpenIPMap] Feedback/question openipmap

Hi Ripe

 

Thanks for your excellent work here … I tried this with on IP from me 

where I have an inetnum object for a /32 with an exact geoloc position

for Frankfurt (185.54.144.33) – But openipmap does locate this to Stuttgart 

instead to Frankfurt for whatever reason … 

Maybe it would make sense to have a look at your own geoloc attribute in Ripe

or rank it higher than the often random-generated from strange geo-ip databases?

 

Alternative – if you do not support this attribute yourself, you should maybe

better think on deleting it from ripe?

 

my personal view on this:

This global geolocation topic is starting to make much more troubles and causing support

as it does solve … so all initiatives should be focused to make things better

and not just add another plattform which creates a few new problems which 

we would not have if the pattform would not exist 😉

(doesn’t mean that this is true for your initiative – this is just my general view on this…)

 

Thanks for your efforts!

Bernd
