Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The current IP geolocation API service does not provide SSL/HTTPS encryption, has rate limits for high-frequency requests, and is based on ISP/ASN-reported location information.

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like to recommend ipinfo.io for IP data.

  • Provides highly accurate IP geolocation backed by our probe network infrastructure. (Blog post and accuracy posts)
  • Free tier access token supports 50,000 requests per month.
  • IPinfo supports HTTPS/SSL encryption on all endpoints.
  • Tokenless access grants 1,000 requests per day.
  • No rate limit for repeated API requests. You can make all the allocated requests in one go.
  • Includes ASN and hostname information. Supports bulk enrichment through a single API endpoint. We also have a comprehensive integration library.

Usage example:

curl https://ipinfo.io/8.8.8.8
{
    "ip": "8.8.8.8",
    "hostname": "dns.google",
    "anycast": true,
    "city": "Mountain View",
    "region": "California",
    "country": "US",
    "loc": "37.4056,-122.0775",
    "org": "AS15169 Google LLC",
    "postal": "94043",
    "timezone": "America/Los_Angeles"
}
