I wanted to draw an analogy to wardriving: instead of collecting my neighbors' Wi-Fi SSIDs, I collected information about their houses' characteristics and quality. Pehaps it is a stretch, but the original idea was actually to drive with a camera on the roof of the car, but it proved to be a costly setup, and Street View was more "scalable."

For the next part, I will actually need to do it: Drive around, perhaps recording, and then extracting "for sale" signs. I have no idea how I am going to make it cheaper, maybe using simple text detection instead of an AI will suffice.

I was honestly looking for / intrigued by (the thought of) e.g. a correlation between Wifi 6E access point density vs older ones, and quality of living / neighbourhood.

Me too. I was asking myself what sort of neighborly attributes a strong wifi passphrase indicates.

sounds like OP TFA just drove around! sounds like how everyone and my grandma finds their house. it’s like tptacek says: ‘talk to me when you get deep in 801.11!’ -tptacek via armondo
