Looking for Linux Equivalent Program

I've been working on a wireless project for months, and looked around 
for things oss like heatmapping, rtls function, etc, and there's nothing 
too well baked to use production-wise aside from some half-baked, 
minimally existing projects on sourceforge.

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