This database indicates how static or dynamic an IP address is, which can be
useful for deciding whether an IP address represents the same user over time.

To learn more about the GeoIP Static IP Score database, including terms and
pricing, please
[contact our Enterprise Business team](https://www.maxmind.com/en/solutions/connect-with-a-geoip-expert)
for assistance.

 **Data Privacy**

To comply with data privacy regulations, please monitor our
[Do Not Sell My Personal Information Requests](https://www.maxmind.com/en/accounts/current/do-not-sell-requests)
page (login required) for IP addresses and networks that should not be used for
advertising or marketing purposes. You can automate retrieval of this list using
our [privacy exclusions API](/geoip/privacy-exclusions-api). 


## Binary Database

Binary databases make use of the
[MaxMind DB file format](https://maxmind.github.io/MaxMind-DB/).

You can use the [mmdbinspect tool](https://github.com/maxmind/mmdbinspect) (in
beta), a command line interface built with Go, to look up one or more IPs from
one or more MMDB databases and receive output in a parsable JSON format.

[Learn about the fields in the binary version of this database on our binary
database field reference page.](binary/)

## CSV Database

In addition to our MaxMind DB binary format, we also offer GeoIP and GeoLite
databases in a CSV format suitable for importing into a SQL database. The CSV
files are shipped as a single
[zip file](<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zip_(file_format)>).




The zip file itself is named `GeoIP2-Static-IP-Score-CSV_{YYYYMMDD}.zip`.
The downloaded zip file contains a single directory which in turn
contains several files. That directory is named
`GeoIP2-Static-IP-Score-CSV_{YYYYMMDD}`.


The files in this zip archive are:

| Filename | Description |
|----------|-------------|
| `LICENSE.txt` | End user license |
| `COPYRIGHT.txt` | Copyright statement |
| `GeoIP2-Static-IP-Score-Blocks-IPv4.csv` | CSV file containing data on IPv4 addresses |
| `GeoIP2-Static-IP-Score-Blocks-IPv6.csv` | CSV file containing data on IPv6 addresses |


All the CSV files start with a single header row containing column names. The
specific column names and their contents are detailed below. The files are
encoded as UTF-8.


### Blocks Files

There are two CSV files for network blocks, one each for IPv4 and IPv6 blocks.
These are named `GeoIP2-Static-IP-Score-Blocks-IPv4.csv` and
`GeoIP2-Static-IP-Score-Blocks-IPv6.csv` respectively.

          "2.125.160.216/29" or "2001:c50::/32". We offer a utility to convert
          this column to start/end IPs or start/end integers. See
          <a href="#conversion-utility">the conversion utility section</a> for
          details.

            An indicator of how static or dynamic an IP address is. The value
            ranges from 0 to 99.99 with higher values meaning a greater static
            association. For example, many IP addresses with a user_type of
            cellular have a score under 1. Broadband IPs that don't change very
            often typically have a score above 30.

### Conversion Utility

We've created a
[small utility program](https://github.com/maxmind/geoip2-csv-converter) to
allow you to convert a GeoIP CSV file's representation of IP addresses to
another format. You can choose between start/end IP addresses, with the
addresses represented as strings or integers.

The program is available from our
[geoip2-csv-converter GitHub project releases tab.](https://github.com/maxmind/geoip2-csv-converter/releases)


## Example Files

We maintain example files in CSV and MMDB format. The files contain dummy data
rather than real GeoIP data.


### CSV Example Files

We maintain examples of the CSV files as they would be downloaded from the account portal:



- [GeoIP2-Static-IP-Score-CSV_Example.zip](/examples/GeoIP2-Static-IP-Score-CSV_Example.zip)
  

### MMDB Example Files

We maintain test MMDB files on GitHub:



- [GeoIP2-Static-IP-Score-Test.mmdb](https://github.com/maxmind/MaxMind-DB/blob/main/test-data/GeoIP2-Static-IP-Score-Test.mmdb)
  

Alternatively, you can [view all of our MMDB test data on GitHub](https://github.com/maxmind/MaxMind-DB/tree/main/test-data).

## Database Sizes

<!-- prettier-ignore-start -->

MaxMind databases can vary in size from release to release. If you are
working with file size limitations that are concerning, you should build
your integrations to fail gracefully in event of a significant size
change.

From May to August 2026, the database files varied in file size and number of networks as
follows:

| Database | CSV File Size | MMDB File Size | IPv4 Networks | IPv6 Networks |
|----------|---------------|----------------|---------------|---------------|
- databaseName: "GeoIP Static IP Score"
  csvSizeRange: "47.5 MB - 53.8 MB"
  mmdbSizeRange: "14.2 MB - 16.0 MB"
  ipv4Range: "1,425,000 - 1,719,000"
  ipv6Range: "545,000 - 563,000"

The listed file sizes are for unpacked databases. Databases are
downloaded in a compressed format.

## Database Changes

We may add new data fields to the Static IP Score database at any time.

New database fields are added as new columns to the right of existing columns in our CSV files,
and as additional data in our MMDB files.

Subscribe to our [GeoIP release notes](/geoip/release-notes) to be notified when new
data is added to our databases.

## [GeoIP Static IP Score binary database fields](/geoip/docs/databases/static-ip-score/binary/)
<p>The GeoIP Static IP Score binary database contains the following fields for each
network.</p>


<div class="table">
  <table>
    <tbody>
      <tr>
        <th>Data field name</th>
        <th>Type</th>
        <th>Data field description</th>
      </tr>

      <tr>
        <td>score</td>
        <td>double</td>
        <td>
          <p>
            An indicator of how static or dynamic an IP address is. The value
            ranges from 0 to 99.99 with higher values meaning a greater static
            association. For example, many IP addresses with a
            <code>user_type</code> of <code>cellular</code> have a score under
            1. Broadband IPs that don't change very often typically have a score
            above 30.
