DjNRO upgrade and wifi mapping
Find nearby wifi access points in federated wifi communities
DjNRO is an open-source tool for a wifi roaming community. It supports the organisational participants, their wireless hotspot locations and configurations. It is suitable as a public or internal tool for managing distributed wifi deployments, and already powers the world-wide eduroam community.
This project aims to improve the wifi location mapping by correlating independent wifi hotspot data and OSM location data with the manually maintained organisational participant information.
By importing additional information on the deployment of roaming wifi services, they can be validated to give users more accurate information on service availability, and assist administrators in identifying broken or invalid networks, or even "evil twin" networks in proximity of legitimate deployments.
