Nmap's OS Fingerprinting focuses on accuracy and extendibility not on
stealthiness or using little bandwidth.
Ofir Arkin and Fyodor Yarochkin wrote Xprobe to identify system types
http://www.sys-security.com/html/projects/X.html
Looks for differences in how various systems respond to strange ICMP packets
Uses only one to four ICMP packets per target,in fact, one packet can
unambiguously identify eight different system types.
Ofir has also just created a new company that sells a Network mapping
software called Insightix, have a look at www.insightix.com I think you will
find this very interesting

Subject: generating a network map

Hello there,
I am looking for a software that can generate or
reconstruct a network topology from raw data obtained
from live network capturing or offline tcpdump capture
files. 

Also if theres any utility (preferably open source)
than can generate a network map from nmap logs.

any help will be highly appreciated
