user2092: I want to operate stake pool nodes in underserved areas. My cloud provider automatically chooses the cheapest datacenter nearest to me. But I am willing to pay more to deploy to data centers in underdeveloped countries.
How can I identify which regions are saturated and which regions have little or no nearby connectivity?
The IOHK Shelley node map, is the best I have found, but it looks hard to interpret. I came away thinking half the nodes are in the ocean.
Yes, it was...

There are some maps:

https://poolpeek.com/poolpeek.com/poolsearchmap
https://monadpool.com/cardano.html
Enjoy! :)

https://adatools.io/hologram only slightly helpful. But adatainment allows one to drill down on to staking pools to see where they are on a political map.
I don't think any of these are exhaustive.
