The Opte Project is a project created by Barrett Lyon[1][2] that seeks to make an accurate representation of the extent of the Internet using visual graphics.
The project was started in October 2003 in an effort to provide a useful Internet map with open source code. Lyon believes that the network mapping can help teach students more about the Internet. Additionally it can be used as a gauge for the growth of the Internet and the areas of growth.
The project has gathered support worldwide and is part of the catalogs of the Boston Museum of Science,[3] The Museum of Modern Art[4] and The Louvre.[citation needed]
