This is a sample in PHP of how you can integrate the answer in your application :
  
function locateIp($ip){

    $d = file_get_contents("http://www.ipinfodb.com/ip_query.php?ip=$ip&output=xml");

    //Use backup server if cannot make a connection
    if (!$d){
        $backup = file_get_contents("http://backup.ipinfodb.com/ip_query.php?ip=$ip&output=xml");
        $answer = new SimpleXMLElement($backup);
        if (!$backup) return false; // Failed to open connection
    }else{
        $answer = new SimpleXMLElement($d);
    }

    $country_code = $answer->CountryCode;
    $country_name = $answer->CountryName;
    $region_name = $answer->RegionName;
    $city = $answer->City;
    $zippostalcode = $answer->ZipPostalCode;
    $latitude = $answer->Latitude;
    $longitude = $answer->Longitude;
    $timezone = $answer->Timezone;
    $gmtoffset = $answer->Gmtoffset;
    $dstoffset = $answer->Dstoffset;

    //Return the data as an array
    return array('ip' => $ip, 'country_code' => $country_code, 'country_name' => $country_name, 'region_name' => $region_name, 'city' => $city, 'zippostalcode' => $zippostalcode, 'latitude' => $latitude, 'longitude' => $longitude, 'timezone' => $timezone, 'gmtoffset' => $gmtoffset, 'dstoffset' => $dstoffset);
} 

 $ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$ip_data=locateIp($ip);

echo "IP : " . $ip_data['ip'] . "";
echo "Country code : " . $ip_data['country_code'] . "<br>";
echo "Country name : " . $ip_data['country_name'] . "<br>";

echo "Latitude : " . $ip_data['latitude'] . "<br>";
echo "Longitude : " . $ip_data['longitude'] . "<br>";
echo "Timezone : " . $ip_data['timezone'] . "<br>";
echo "GmtOffset : " . $ip_data['gmtoffset'] . "<br>";
