Forgive my ignorance, but I'm not sure what this is showing me. I'm running it on my home linux system, which is connected to the Internet via Verizon FIOS. The map shows three red dots, none of which are near me.

Those 3 dots are your peers, the other end of the TCP connection :)

So you basically have some apps running in the background (or foreground) that are making those connections.

I'm colorblind and had to change the dots color. Might be a nice config option.

Maybe they were expecting first hops like from traceroute. Maybe traceroute is an interesting way to continue developing.

Okay, got it, thanks. I suppose it could also be the FIOS router itself making those connections, or any of the other systems on my local network.
