I took a look thanks. Pricing seems good, however we have a very international audience. We need to get timezones for geocodes (preferably Google Place IDs) from all over Asia and the Middle East.
How good is your global timezone data? Is it possible to map Google Places (from their places autocomplete form) to a timezone?
Two considerations that help avoid the IP issue, but require user permission and so have a big obvious disadvantage:
1) We can prompt mobile users to enable location/gps and get their location that way.
2) We can prompt modern browsers to allow location services and get their location that way.
This is if a user wants to have their location 'auto-set' instead of via pulldowns.
3) A hard problem to solve is - mapping a unified set of city names to timezones, and updating the timezones as per Daylight Savings Time and general timezone updates.
Location to Timezone would be of value to me. No IP involved, want to map a Google Places / Location City value ~ to a timezone. Would pay monthly fee.
