LOC Lookup
Query LOC records to retrieve geographic location information stored in DNS
Try example domain:
LOC (Location) records are DNS records that specify the physical location of a domain or host. They contain geographic coordinates (latitude, longitude, altitude) and precision information, allowing applications to determine the physical location associated with a domain name.
Key Components:
- Latitude/Longitude: Geographic coordinates in degrees, minutes, and seconds
- Altitude: Height above sea level in meters
- Size: Physical size of the location in meters
- Precision: Horizontal and vertical precision of the coordinates
How LOC Records Work:
- Applications query DNS for LOC records of a domain
- The DNS server returns the geographic coordinates and precision data
- Applications can use this data for location-based services
- Common uses include CDN optimization, compliance, and geographic routing
