1. A method to map a geolocation to a network address, the method including:
- performing at least one automated process to generated geolocation information for the network address;
determining whether the at least one automated process generated satisfactory geolocation information for the network address; and
if the automated process did not generate satisfactory geolocation information for the network address, then forwarding of the network address for manual resolution.

Abstract
A method and a system map a geographic location to a network address. At least one automated process is performed to identify a geographic location for the network address. A determination is made whether the automated process provided satisfactory geographic location information for the network address. If the automated process did not provided satisfactory geographic location information for the network address, then the network address is forwarded for manual resolution.

30. A geolocation system to map a geolocation to a network address, the geolocation system including:
-
first means for saving a network address; and
second means for performing at least one automated process to generate geographic location information for the network address, for determining whether the geopgraphic location information generated by the at least one automated process is satisfactory, and, if the automated process did not generate satisfactort geolocation information for the network address, for forwarding the network address for manual resolution.
