ASN source when using "-A with traceroute"

Hello everyone! I have a funny case - one of our upstream provider announced our address space for very short time which was well due to confusion since we requested them to announce one of other blocks while they by mistake announced both blocks. Anyways, now funny thing here is - whenever I run a traceroute from any of Linux server from any location, I see upsteam provider as well as our ASN in output of traceroute -A. This is not really a problem at all but I am just curious to know the source of IP-ASN mapping in traceroute output. Also any ideas on update frequency of that source?
