And about a decade ago there was a researcher who compiled
fiber right-of-way maps from public sources and wrote a paper
discussing vulnerability of Internet structure to physical attack.
The details were omitted due to 'security' ...
you're likely thinking of Sean Gorman's dissertation:
Networks, complexity, and security: the role of public policy in
critical infrastructure protection
http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1023236
yet crowdrecreating/finding
that work/paper would yield similar IX locations for discussion.
path diversity at the physical layer would be useful to consider, and
you could do this without the fine grained location and capacity
details that makes the above critical infrastructure vulnerabilities
less a concern.
detailed and specific plats/maps akin to what Sean aggregated and
analyzed get you unwelcome scrutiny ;)
Big fiber junctions are often not in giant buildings with telecom
logos on them.
