This is usually because of the nature of our cluster trilateration algorithm - someone has seen something with the same BSSID that you saw first "more-often" and/or "more-recently" in those locations. Rather than "smear" across the map, it relocates the "current&qu...

Looks like the wardriving mode docs for Kismet moved - https://www.kismetwireless.net/docs/rea ... /wardrive/ is the new location

Unfortunately, it's not easy. Google has been steadily locking down permissions to access app-storage outside of apps (including taking away "external" storage for non-approved data types, anything other than documents and images) in more recent Android. There's an open "Issue" f...

sorry, realizing the misinterpretation - "holds its own" is an english expression meaning "performs well" - no link other than the web maps and stats!

Hi! (So, in general, it's worth starting a new thread for new issues - makes it easier for people to search.) last-update isn't actually a great search field, we'll probably remove that when we improve the UI - as a programmer you can check out the API at https://api.wigle.net/swagger#/Network%20sea...

The strongest signal is often the closest, but absent measurements along another axis, you can't really get closer with a phone. Using the website search and maps instead of just the app will giv...

thank you - there should be one if you're logged in

Fantastic. We're aware that UI distance (vs. computed from route) is still wonky, but are actively working on it!
Thanks for the feedback!

not under that user-name, you don't! People are always welcome to contact us for an increase in query limit. Just tell us about your project and explain what you need. As previously stated, the limits are there to prevent harvesting and monopolization of the project, as well as enforce the EULA and ...

Modern phones use a combination of satellite ("GPS" or GNSS more accurately these days, since there are multiple "constellations" of satellites launched by different parties) and terrestrial signals to determine your location. If you're someplace with few/few known terrestrial si...
