RIPE Atlas is the RIPE NCC’s main Internet data collection system. It is a global network of devices, called probes and anchors, that actively measure Internet connectivity. Anyone can access this data via Internet traffic maps, streaming data visualisations, and an API. RIPE Atlas users can also perform customised measurements to gain valuable data about their own networks.
Deploying RIPE Atlas probes within AWS Regions allows RIPE Atlas users to create customized measurements originating from within one of these AWS locations. And anyone can use the resulting data to gain insight into the network connectivity of these AWS regions.
Combined with the EC2 Reachability Test IP targets for IPv4 and IPv6, it is also possible to measure Network connectivity across the AWS backbone.

RIPE Atlas probes can also be easily used through the Hurricane Electric BGP Toolkit. Using the Traceroute functionality for AS16509, you can select one of the above probes and perform a traceroute, ping or DNS lookup from them.
Here is an example output with a ping to 8.8.8.8 from probe 1000640 in Canada (West), ca-west-1:
