An example of GPSProbe running on a Raspberry Pi3 with an external Wifi antenna, GPS, and a Unicornhat HD display.
A passive surveillance tool that tracks wifi enabled devices nearby,
GPSProbe records the MAC addresses, GPS co-ordinates and other pertinent
information. This tool pairs nicely with security cameras to provide
evidence of who or what was visiting your property uninvited.
Features:
- record MAC address, time of day, signal strength, vendor, etc.
- can assign a friendly name to previously recognized MAC addresses
- optional tracking of GPS co-ordinates
- tracks routers as well as mobile devices
Optional Unicorn hat HD display
- leverages code from Arcade Retro Clock to display device counts,
signal counts, and packet counts

This project started off as a fork of probemon. I added the ability
to capture GPS co-ordinates to the capture file.

Arcade Retro Clock HD has not been released as of July 2019 but I have
included some functions and objects required to display scrolling
alphanumerics and strength bars.

GPS polling code and thread spawning code was borrowed from another
project that I have since lost track. I will certainly give them
full credit when I track them down
Sample Output
Details of the captured packets are shown in a series of ncurses windows.
