For the RIS, we use dot, see: http://www.ris.ripe.net/cgi-bin/risas.cgi?as=3333&action=Search&startDay=20040123&startHour=00&startMin=00&startSec=00&endDay=20040123&endHour=14&endMin=7&endSec=35&rrcb=all&peer=all&type=U&outype=plot&sortby=stime&arrow=east&rank=100&plotsize=A4&.cgifields=type for an example, or select your own AS and graphical output in http://www.ris.ripe.net/cgi-bin/risas.cgi It is based on dot, plus about 2 pages of perl to pull the data from a DB. The nice thing about dot is that it does most of the work for you, including merging common parts of the paths and minimizing the number of crossing lines.
