How do I use the mapping feature?

The mapping feature in KisMAC allows the program, to show the different networks and your current position in a map.

In order to setup a map, you will need to import an image and switch to the "map"-tab. You should see your map here now. Now click on the "Set Waypoint 1" entry in the Map menu and click on a position in the map, that you know the geograhical position for. KisMAC will now ask you for this position. If you have a gps device attached to your computer, you current position is set as default coordinates.
Now use the "Set Waypoint 1" entry to setup a second waypoint. After you setuped this two points, KisMAC can now use the image as a full quality map. Networks are automatically displayed. You can also show your current position, by clicking on the "Current Position" entry in the map menu.

Networks are shown in four colors, based on their level of encryption:

Green is open. Yellow is unknown. Red is WEP. Blue is WPA.
