可以将自定义IP与Google Chrome的地理定位功能结合使用吗？

Question

today i tested the geolocation system implement by google on Chrome, with this page: http://www.browsergeolocation.com/ , the think is, is possible to use this service but without my ip?, i mean, using other ip to retrive the geo info.

PS 1: I know the are many sites that offer iptogeo services, but they only give you a very general address. This particular service gave not only the country and the state, it gave even the street!

PS 2: I post this question here because i know the solution may be on code. Thanks!

Answer 1

According to W3C,

The Geolocation API must be agnostic to the underlying sources of location information.

So no, given that the source might be an onboard GPS or triangulation based on on nearby SSIDs, it cannot be done with only an IP. You'd anyway only get as good result as from the iptogeo services if it worked, as Google can't reach into my computer and read my GPS. Yet.
