@semitones @Rhababerbarbar Yep, that's the goal. I started up this project because Mozilla has now shutdown their Location Services, leaving the open source community with no alternatives. Some projects have been using proprietary databases like Google and Apple Location Services.

You're correct that some people don't like their WiFi networks being mapped. They can opt out from most location services (Apple, Google, BeaconDB, etc) by adding _nomap to the end of their SSID.
