Yep on the corner on the market. Makes one thonk it could be a great opportunity for a FOSS project. :)Michael,Lisa,I did not try it in WINE. I am just enough of a bigot to look for a pure Linux solution first since I do not have a work project I need to complete.
https://github.com/cyberpython/WifiScanAndMap seems to indicate something far from having a polished GUI and looks to be at a significantly lower map resolution (though worth a look if nothing else turns up).
The Meraki FAQ ( http://meraki.cisco.com/products/wireless/wifi-mapper#faq ) says "A: WiFi Mapper requires Java support and does not currently support Linux."

Seems commercial software like Aruba Airwave, Cisco WLS/Prime, Ekahau, etc have the lock on things from that perspective.

I ran across this article:
http://www.howtogeek.com/165614/how-to-create-a-wi-fi-heatmap-for-network-analysis-better-coverage-and-geek-cred-galore/
which shows doing a very nifty wifi map of your space. Unfortunately it
uses a windows only program from Ekahau called HeatMap. I did a little
web searching for a Linux equivalent program but have not found anything
that included the mapping function. Does anyone know of one?
