  • Abstract
    There exists a number of network measurement tools and web-based services for end users. Almost all of them focus on network bandwidth and possibly latency, and simply report the results to the user. This paper presents Netradar, a somewhat different measurement service. We analyze network bandwidth and latency but also over ten other parameters. We dwell into the data and show various coverage maps and statistics on our web site for the benefit of the end users. Our long term goal is to be able to answer the simple question: why did I get the indicated result at a given time and place?
