Is this enough to go on or is there anything more that I can look into here?
I'm afraid that might be a relevant data or then again it might not. The positioning data and address data is only as valid as the ISP has seen fit to provide it.

Two examples;

1.) I entered an IP query for my domain server which is hosted by Nebula here in finland, and it gave coordinates that are agout 400km in general northern direction from where it should be. (Nebula has seemingly entered finland's midpoint coordinates there )

2.) I entered my home-DSL's IP address, and got much better match this time, it ws only 7 kilometers off. It is hosted by Elisa and apparently they have entered their DSLAM server room's coordinates to the database
