Route Map & Table
Route Map
The map section of the report shows the Internet route between your location and the target being traced.
A solid line represents a known location in the Visualware database, and a dotted line represents an estimated location which is derived from the registration details for the target's ISP. The Internet route is an important piece of evidence when tracking a target's location as it represents a trail to the destination. While the estimated location is usually correct at a country level, any city locations identified as 'known' that are close to the target destination further help to qualify the target's physical location at the city level.
Route Table
The route table shows each segment, or network ‘hop' of the the Internet route between your location and the target being traced. While both the Route Map and Route Table show the Internet route, the Route Table provides more detail that can be examined for clues to the target's location.
While the Network and Domain Owner details are summarized in the top summary section of the Identification Report, the complete registration records are provided in this section as they often contain additional contact information that may be helpful in tracking and reporting a target. |
