Network Maps

Overall pictures

Larry Landweber does a really nice job of collecting global connectivity info by country. He has Color and Black and White maps for a visual feel, and a tabular (i.e. text-only) version for specific details. You can see his FTP directory for some other, related, info. There is also a map of International E-mail accessibility from Olivier M.J. Crepin-Leblond. This map is clickable to view specific areas in detail.

US overview

A good diagram of Network Service Provider Interconnections (in the US) is available, provided by CERFnet.

Individual Networks

I collected this list long ago, most of these no longer work. I haven't had time to investigate whether they've moved or are now unavailable.

Other interesting network-related maps

A very interesting combination of Cartography and network mapping is a map of Los Angeles and Orange County which provides referrals to Internet Access Providers by location.

There are also a number of different places that have maps of the undersea cables that carry telephone and network links:

non-map related resources

CKD has a site about LOC records in the DNS.

Other lists of maps

Yahoo has a page of network topology info, which is where I found several of the ones in my list. Martin Dodge has a collection of references on The Geography of Cyberspace which has a number of map links and a bunch of other, interesting, stuff about the net.
