Name of related component: Measurement Protocol

Request summary:
All the hits I generate with my applications, use the IP of my country. Then, 
all reports in Analytics determine just one country in ecommerce transactions.

Use Cases:
Whenever I generate a POST to google analytics it uses the IP of my application 
for geolocation in analytics reports, even if visitor used IPs from different 
countries.

An alternative to sending the IP address would be to add the ability to send 
our own GEO data for the hit.   For example, country=US, city=LA.   My company 
attributes ROI marketing data about phone calls, and we post that data into GA 
and we have very rich geo location data that isn't based off an IP address.  
Currently we don't put the Geo data into GA.
