https://atlas.ripe.net/docs/rest/#probe
or more specifically:
https://atlas.ripe.net/api/v1/probe/?tags=fios (it gives exactly one result
at the moment -- the above mentioned one. It's useful if people actually tag
their probes...)

About Ring: we're not authoritative -- I believe http://map.ring.nlnog.net/ is.

I'd like to draw attention to the "one-off measurement" feature, which
responds within 10-30 seconds or so.

Indeed, it serves no coffee :-(
