   I mean, it's great you're really getting into this and enjoying sharing   
   your workings, however, this doesn't address your original "trivial" claim.   
   You're still only exploring one (known) BSSID at a time. Even on a loop.   
      
   The truly non-trivial bit is expanding to all of california and all of   
   florida unknown BSSIDs then doing a temporal mapping between the two.   
      
   I get it. It's very easy to underestimate the complexity of data questions.   
      
      
   Professionally I work with a lot academic researchers and they always get a   
   real shock at how time consuming (and therefore expensive) doing real-world   
   data analyses is. They often think coming up with the question is the   
   difficult bit. It really isn't.   
      
   The UOM paper,, for example, collected data over 22/23 and was published in   
   May 24. That'll give you an idea of how long this stuff takes.
