    Interestingly, the Caida data lacks AS numbers issued in the last several
    months, while the data is present in the arin.net and potaroo.net listings.
    Not sure where Caida gets its data, but the other sources would seem to be
    better for the project the original poster had in mind.

    It's also more than a bit odd, IMO, to assign a latitude and longitude to
    AS numbers. While some networks are well localized, many others span
    continents. As such, the value of that part of the caida data set seems
    nebulous.
