Search WiFi geolocation data by BSSID and SSID on different public databases.

Databases:

• Wigle
• Apple
• OpenWifi
• Milnikov

Prerequisites

• Python3.
• In order to display emojis on Windows, it is recommended to install the new Windows terminal.

• ⚠️ In order to use the Wigle service it is necessary to obtain an API and configure the utils/API.yaml file replacing the value of the "wigle_auth" parameter for the "Encoded for use" data provided by Wigle. This is necessary for searching by SSID.

Installation

Use the package manager pip to install requirements.

python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

usage: geowifi.py [-h] (-s SSID | -b BSSID) [-j] [-m]
optional arguments:
  -h, --help               Show this help message and exit
  -s SSID, --ssid SSID     Search by SSID
  -b BSSID, --bssid BSSID  Search by BSSID
  -j, --json               Json output
  -m, --map                Map output

• Search by BSSID:

python3 geowifi.py -b BSSID

• Search by SSID:

python3 geowifi.py -s SSID

It is possible to export the results in json format using the -j parameter and show the locations on html map using -m.
