I stand corrected - etherape doesn't do the geographical thing. There is
such a tool in debian/ubuntu, but a quick apt-cache search didn't reveal
anything.

As Nick said, it relies on DNS LOC entries or know subnet locations.
This becomes a problem when a subnet is only know to exist somewhere in
Australia - Alice Springs would appear to have every network in
Australia running through it (when the specific location is not know, it
just put the point in the middle of the country in question).
