Subject: [Geowanking] model of the internet - need data
Hi folks,
I'm looking for a map of the Internet. A friend wants to project this
onto a spinny globe. I've found several pictoral representations but
I'm looking a raw data-set that geographically locates major routers
and servers. In an ideal world I'd get a database that indicates { ip
address, amount of traffic, longitude, latitude, connected to other ip
addresses } and then I could draw my own picture. Databases I have
seen do not include longitude and latitude which I something I would
need. Any leads?
I suppose even just given IP addresses I could guess longitude and
latitude location... which wouldn't be ideal but perhaps would be
acceptable.
Here's what I've seen so far,

they seem to have the best data and are nearby.
