Geo Latency Estimator

Notes

• The estimator now applies route-profile-aware inflation instead of using straight-line distance alone, so same-city, domestic, same-continent, and intercontinental paths no longer get the same latency assumptions.
• Geolocation now cross-checks ip-api and ipwho.is per endpoint, reports country alignment and coordinate drift, and lowers confidence when provider geodata disagrees.
• The active TCP probe section now also calibrates the geography-only RTT model with live target-side measurements from the My-IP-Is server, exposing median and P90 model error so the tool can widen the expected latency envelope when real target responsiveness is slower than distance alone suggests.
• The new application transaction planner turns path RTT into realistic cold-start, warm-connection, HTTP/3, and interactive session setup timing so operators can estimate user-facing wait time instead of only raw RTT.
• The workload readiness planner now translates estimated latency into interactive fit for competitive gaming, calls, remote desktop or SSH, and web or API use, with explicit latency-budget headroom under best, typical, and congested conditions.
• The TCP throughput planner converts the estimated RTT into bandwidth-delay-product window requirements and window-limited throughput caps, so long-distance path latency can be translated into realistic transfer behavior without manual math.
• When source or target resolves to multiple endpoints, the tool ranks endpoint pairs and shows RTT spread plus route profile to expose path variability.
• Private/reserved IPs are rejected to prevent internal-network probing.
• For end-user measured latency, compare with Internet Speed Test.
