+## CSV format
+
+This project provides ip to location database in csv format.
+
+#### ASN csv format
+`ip_range_start, ip_range_end, as_number, as_organization`
+
+#### Country csv format
+`ip_range_start, ip_range_end, country_code`
+
+#### City csv format
+`ip_range_start, ip_range_end, country_code, state1, state2, city, postcode, latitude, longitude, timezone`
+
+#### as_number
+`as_number` is a unique number assigned to an Autonomous System (AS) by the [IANA](https://www.iana.org/). [wiki](https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_system_(Internet)).
+
+##### country_code
+`country_code` is the two-letter code defined in [ISO 3166-1 alpha-2](https://wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2).
+You can get the `country name, capital, continent, currency, languages, etc.` from the `country_code` by [Countries Database](https://github.com/annexare/Countries) in JSON, CSV, SQL format.
+
+##### ip address format
+`ip_range_start` and `ip_range_end` is ip address.
+- `ipv4`: The csv line `1.0.0.0,1.0.0.255,AU` means that ip addresses between `1.0.0.0` and `1.0.0.255` inclusive are `AU` country_code.
+- `ipv4-num`: The csv line `16777216,16777471,AU` means that ip addresses between `1.0.0.0` and `1.0.0.255` inclusive are `AU` country_code. (`16777216` is the number format of the ip address `1.0.0.0`)
+- `ipv6`: The csv line `2001:200::,2001:200:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff,JP` means that ip addresses between `2001:200::` and `2001:200:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff` inclusive are `JP` country_code.
+- `ipv6-num`: The csv line `42540528726795050063891204319802818560,42540528806023212578155541913346768895,JP` means that ip addresses between `2001:200::` and `2001:200:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff` inclusive are `JP` country_code. (`42540528726795050063891204319802818560` is the number format of the ip address `2001:200::`)
+
+Please be careful when using `ipv6` and `ipv6-num` in your program. The numerical value exceeds 32bit unsigned integer, you would need to use a 128bit unsigned integer.

+## Databases referenced in this project
+
+When merging multiple database, set the front database above back one.
+(ex. geo-whois-asn-...csv is created by merging 3 database with GeoFeed > Whois > ASN.)
+
+
+### ASN database [Update: Daily]
+
+Created by merging 5 RIP ([afrinic](https://afrinic.net), [apnic](https://www.apnic.net), [arin](https://www.arin.net), [lacnic](https://www.lacnic.net), [ripe ncc](https://www.ripe.net)) IP-ASN-Country database.
+[ASN (Autonomous System Number)](https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_system_(Internet)) is a unique number assigned to an Autonomous System (AS) by the [IANA](https://www.iana.org/).
+
+
+
+### GeoFeed database [Update: Daily]
+
+Created by merging GeoFeed database from [OpenGeoFeed](https://opengeofeed.org/).
+
+
+
+### Whois database [Update: Daily]
+
+Created by merging 5 RIP provided WHOIS database.
+There are some inconsistencies between 5 RIP.
+
+
+
+### [RouteViews](https://www.routeviews.org/routeviews/) database [Update: Daily]
+
+We are using this database to get AS number from ipv4 address for [asn](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@ip-location-db/asn).
