The NLANR group pioneered both wide-scale passive and active
Internet measurement projects. NLANR's PMA projects
collects both short (90 second) and long (hours or days)
traces of Internet traffic, primarily at academic sites.
IP addresses in these traces are anonymized and then the
traces are publicly available for download and use. As a
part of their PMA project, NLANR recently collected the
first publicly available OC192/10GigE trace. NLANR's AMP
project coordinates active measurements, including round
trip time (RTT), packet loss, topology, and throughput
(user/event driven), between 150 primarily academic
higih-performance computing sites around the world.

As the European Internet Registry, RIPE maintains one of the
WHOIS databases connecting IP address information with address
owners. In addition to this operational responsibility, RIPE
also collects time-synchronized active measurements (including
delay and IP path) as a part of it's Test Traffic Measurement
(TTM) project.
