It is able to run on a rpi0 for example, without requiring 100% cpu usage. You will need a wifi card that is able to run in monitor mode and a GPS device recognized by gpsd . ssid-logger uses the pcap library to listen passively for beacon management frames broadcasted by wifi access points, using a wifi card in monitor mode. It parses each beacon to extract the minimum data required to export to wigle.net. It logs each beacon AP alongside its GPS coordinates, acquired via the gpsd daemon. It automatically hops between 802.11n channels, at the default rate of 3 per second. It can log to a sqlite3 database (by default) or to a csv file. This is an all-in-one solution to log SSIDs. Even though kismet is a great software; it's wardrive mode might not be light enough for a rpi0 (may be a rpi0 v2 ?) Note: ssid-logger does not automatically export the collected data to wigle.net. You will have to do it manually, if you want to (there is a helper script in ./scripts ). Running You run ssid-logger with: $ sudo ssid-logger -i wlan0mon where wlan0mon is a wifi interface already put in monitor mode. The default output format is a sqlite3 database, named beacon.db . You can choose another name by using the -o switch.
