LOC Record Checker
Look up LOC records that publish latitude, longitude, and altitude metadata for domains and hosts. No sign-up required. Keeps your data private on-device.
How to use this tool
- Query LOC records for the host or domain.
- Review coordinates, altitude, and precision values from the DNS response.
- Export results for documentation, mapping, or infrastructure audits.
Location data checks
- Validate latitude/longitude values against trusted source coordinates.
- Confirm altitude and precision fields reflect real measurement accuracy.
- Use TTL information when planning metadata changes and verification.
Operational guidance
- LOC records are optional and not widely deployed across public zones.
- Coordinates are typically represented in RFC 1876 DMS-based format.
- Use conservative precision values to avoid overstating location certainty.
FAQ
- Why do many domains return no LOC data?
- Publishing LOC records is optional, so many zones simply do not include location RRsets.
- Can LOC coordinates be converted to decimal degrees?
- Yes. Convert minutes and seconds to fractional degrees and combine with whole-degree components.
