Here are a couple of resources:
CAIDA The Cooperative Association for Internet Data Analysis is my
favorite source of really cool internet geograpical data
http://www.caida.org/research/topology/
"CAIDA has been measuring, analyzing, modeling, and visualizing Internet
topology since 1998. We seek to characterize macroscopic Internet
connectivity using both topological and geographical representations at
multiple levels of aggregation granularity. This research goal is
particularly challenging due to inconsistencies in different measurement
tools and counterincentives for ISPs to support responding to tools that
make inferences about connectivity. These constraints make it difficult
and often impossible to validate scientific inferences about Internet
topology against reality. And yet, an empirically grounded understanding
of the Internet's shape, structure, and evolution has already had
profound implications for network science theory and practice. For
example, longitudinal measurements reveal incongruities between the
Internet's routing system and the underlying topology, which is evolving
away from what the routing system needs to route efficiently. "
These guys also have lots of NOT free data :

Hi folks,
I'm looking for a map of the Internet. A friend wants to project this
onto a spinny globe. I've found several pictoral representations but
I'm looking a raw data-set that geographically locates major routers
and servers. In an ideal world I'd get a database that indicates { ip
address, amount of traffic, longitude, latitude, connected to other ip
addresses } and then I could draw my own picture. Databases I have
seen do not include longitude and latitude which I something I would
need. Any leads?
I suppose even just given IP addresses I could guess longitude and
latitude location... which wouldn't be ideal but perhaps would be
acceptable.
Here's what I've seen so far,
http://www.opte.org/ -> I'll try reach out to these folks since
they seem to have the best data and are nearby.

Thanks for any input!
