MOAR DATA #1

Hello,

I'm working on bringing up an ARPANET using emulated IMPs. Naturally I find your map very exciting!

I have access to old host tables. Do you want more detailed data for your map?

Absolutely! That would be great.

I had in mind scraping some info off old host lists from the 1970s. But alas, they don't have any information about the network connections. I can still get the data to you if you want to know which computers and operating systems were running on which sites.

As for topological data, look here:

And if you're really interested in ARPANET, you will soon be able to run your own site in an emulated network.
