RIPEstat
The RIPE NCC’s comprehensive source of data on Internet address space
now includes four new datasets: Country ASNs (registered and routed ASNs
by country), Visibility (RIS peers), RIS First-Last-Seen (shows when
resources became visible in RIS), and RIPE Atlas Probe Deployment (by
region, over time).

There were more than 900,000 requests per hour last week! Not using
RIPEstat yet? Check it out today:

RIPE ATLAS
RIPE Atlas is deprecating its version 1 APIs by the end of the year.
Please use the latest tools to interact with the system and check out
the documentation if you need to make changes to your clients.
