Information Week publishes a story on the Internet Mapping Project:
2008 is the tenth anniversary of a project to map the Internet. Undertaken by Lumeta, the effort was undertaken as a long-range research project to study the growth of the online world…. The project gathers routing data to all backbone routers hosted by ISPs. The map shows only the shortest path to each router. Lumeta says these paths can change over time as routers are reconfigured. Maps can be constructed based on a variety of data points, including IP address blocks, geography, Top Level Domains (TLDs) and service providers.
The report is accompanied by a number of sample maps, including this internet map of the Middle East. (Click on thumbnail to enlarge.)
