Google publishes that information at
https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/faq#locations
and chances are this gives you a list that might be used to roughly
determine their clients geolocation in case your authoritative server is
not yet EDNS client subnet enabled. ( http://www.afasterinternet.com/ )
>From a client perspective it is quite likely that you'll end up using the
cluster closest to you. Also it should be easy to write something up that
returns the recursive Server IP that queried for a certain qname as a TXT
record or even automatically the matches from that list.

best regards,
