Swarm 802.11b/a/g Wi-Fi Indoor/Outdoor Mapping Software
Swarm™ combines the power of realtime Yellowjacket® 802.11b/a/n/g Wi-Fi measurements with GPS geo-coding accuracy. First, create your survey bitmaps with both Linear and GPS PROJECTOR software. Next, simply walk or drive to any spot with GPS reception while Swarm™ COLLECTOR scans all 802.11b/a/n/g channels and correlates them to your exact location automatically via GPS or manually by tapping on the touch-screen. GPS measurements provide both LAT and LON as well as time stamping for a complete Wi-Fi survey path anywhere in the world. Swarm™ COLLECTOR allows JPEG screen snapshots to be taken at particular points of interest throughout the survey. Finally, survey data such as RSSI, MAC and SSID may be exported into Swarm’s ANALYZER for further mapping coverage studies in multiple graphical and tabular layouts. In areas with little or no GPS reception, Swarm™ ANALYZER only needs a few reference points to fill in the locations for the rest making it effective for quick outdoor studies. Surveys may be exported further into KML files for plotting in applications such as Google Earth™.

Swarm Analyzer is an application in Swarm that runs on the desktop or laptop PC
platform. When used in conjunction with Yellowjacket
B/A/G and Swarm Collector and Projector, displays comprehensive user adjustable parameters about any Wi-Fi network detected
and maps the coverage through user defined filters.

What is the difference between Drone and Swarm ?
-
-
Swarm uses realtime GPS latitude and longitude data for measurements both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz 802.11b/a/g networks. Drone only works with 802.11b/g networks using 2.4 GHz.
