WhereIs / GeoBlock

Tometa Software provides a pair of products (available separately) that allow you to retrieve geographical information from a supplied IP address and block traffic to your IIS server based on that geogrphical information.

- The Tometa WhereIs service gives you information on the geographical location of an IP address based on Internet infrastructure information. In includes a free SDK, E-mail support and code examples.

IP geolocation technology and continuously updated databases allows a single line of code in your program or Web site to give you the following information: city name (e.g. Spokane), state or region name (e.g. Washington), full country name (e.g. United States of America), postal code, area code (e.g. 509), latitude, longitude, IP address, country code (e.g USA), DMA Code (e.g. 881), region code (e.g. WA), and country flag graphic (large or small).

Tometa WhereIs allows you to dynamically insert customized welcome messages on to your page or utilize IP Geo information in your programs and Web site. Example uses include verifying and pre-filling information; displaying local information such as weather, sports, schedules and more; geographically based targeted content, etc.

- GeoBlock filters all traffic from the client to your Web server based on locations that you select. You can even block locations all the way down to the state and city level.

GeoBlock utilizes the vendor's WhereIs Web service for updates. GeoBlock integrates directly with the property pages of Internet sites in IIS and within a few clicks can be up and running.
