3D IP Lookup Widget
- Version: 0.4
- Released: 20 Jan 2007
- License type: Freeware
3DIP Lookup Widget visualizes the geographical location of the hosts from a traceroute output in Google Earth.
Traceroute, reinvented
3D IP Lookup web service is an experimental tool to
generate Google Earth plugins from traceroute outputs.
Have you ever wondered where the heck in the world was the IP Address 158.42.4.23 that you see in your blog statistics?
Yes, there is the traceroute commandline utility, but what do those obscure lines mean?
What if you could visualize the results on that gorgeous Google Earth 3D map?
So I built this service that creates Google Earth Plugins using IP geolocation information from
My IP Address lookup service.
3D IP Lookup widget brings the 3D IP Lookup web service to your Dashboard in a compact, easy to use interface.
Minimum system requirements are Mac OS X 10.4 “Tiger” or later,
Google Earth,
an Internet connection (broadband recommended) and a
lot of patience (the traceroute command can take a very long time to run sometimes).
3D IP Lookup web service is based on My IP Address lookup and is still in early beta phase. Any feedback is highly appreciated.

Who’s using 3D IP Lookup Widget?
Professor Ross Beveridge used 3D IP Lookup Widget to generate a movie of a traceroute flyover from colostate.edu to msu.ru for the introductory presentation of his CT 310 course at Colorado State University. Isn’t that cool?
