Hello Nathan - Interesting topic

<<I am more interested in using commercial applications like rendering networks, zooming into a particular node based on overlaying a 3d space with a GIS (geographics Information) or sky as a backdrop etc.>>

Rendering networks in 3D would probably be a very desired tool - take Visio Enterprise and move it into the 3D space. Where do I get that puppy?!?

Interpret statistics and map them in a 3D space for monitoring networks in realtime or use 3D modeling for traffic (trend) analysis!?!

Another idea - intruder detection. Allowing a network specialist/admin type to monitor network traffic in a 3D mapped representation of their network with "alerts" set to present thresholds. One could then read real-time statistics as well as navigate the network choosing to "zoom" in on "problem" areas (places on the network where thresholds have been reached or are close).

This is an interesting forum :)
