Dear X-Air and WeatherCat network "weather" observers,

WhatRoute is based on a tool that was developed at an organization called CAIDA:

http://www.caida.org/

I spent about a year working for these folks while I was in San Diego.  During that time, they were able to make a tool that would approximately figure out where a computer was located in the world.  It is from that code that WhatRoute gets its geographical locations.

To save you from yourself - obviously . . . .  [rolleyes2]

There is a third "old school" way to get this data, using the command line tool traceroute.  That is of course where this capability first came to UNIX.
