Answer 1

Answer:    B. Geo search

Explanation:  It is a search that uses the aforementioned geolocations, IPs and location-based addresses for the search factors.  Geo-search actually yields geographically-tailored results. In other words, it is a search tool that filters and extracts geographic location data from all available data, and the user can obtain information about events or data about that location during such a search, that is, when using this tool. Geo search can be used by both individuals and companies for various commercial purposes where they can get information about desired events, things, interests, needs related to a given location. In doing so, different distances can be searched with this tool, so the desired search can be limited to the streets, the whole city, multiple cities, the whole part of the world or the whole world. The priority of the obtained data can be sorted in different ways, for example, according to the distance from the least to the largest, as well as the importance of a certain type of information in a certain location, etc.
