 Don't think so. the MIDS data, as I believe, works on forward data.



what about quarterman's maps. they used to cover this exact type of thing.

Hello

Has anyone ever attempted to create a geographical database of networks?
In other words, zone the world into pertinent, well-known blocks and do a
network->zone key->value pair.

        You mean like HWB & KC did a couple years back at one of the IEPG
meetings?  Or the in-addr <-> delegate map that was presented at the IEPG
meeting in Chicago in 1998?  Granted, it was a fairly high-level map w/o
lots of detail.  Much more could be done, including doing  a really goofy
mapping of ASN, prefix, delegation triples.
