I do not see the good data quality here. Some have proper names, others are called something like "XO-AS15”, or “CMCS”, or “AS17054”. This isn’t great.

Arguably, this is better than nothing and I wouldn’t mind using the description wherever we don’t have anything better, but it isn’t first choice.

@Peter: Do you want to look into extracting information from this?
