# MaxMind GeoIP Provider

> Use of MaxMind and other geolocation databases are subject to applicable licenses and terms governing the databases. Consult the database provider for the latest applicable terms.
This package provides a MaxMind GeoIP provider for use with the OpenTelemetry GeoIP processor. It leverages the [geoip2-golang package](https://github.com/oschwald/geoip2-golang) to query geographical information associated with IP addresses from MaxMind databases. See recommended clients: https://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/docs/databases#api-clients
