Wireless LANs are being installed everywhere and are becoming a critical infrastructure component. But you can't see a wireless network in action. You can't see where the radio waves are flowing. The VisiWave Site Survey product lets you visualize the radio waves and demonstrate the effectiveness of your coverage.
VisiWave Site Survey
is an
advanced site survey tool that provides data collection and
visualization capabilities not found in any other existing product. The
VisiWave Site Survey product takes advantage of advanced location tracking technology and combines
that with high powered data visualization and reporting
capabilities to create a complete wireless LAN site
surveying solution.
VisiWave Site Survey gathers WLAN RF data and produces visually compelling survey reports, making it an indispensable tool for WLAN consultants and administrators.

New: Visualize Wi-Fi Coverage using Google Earth
You can now use Google Earth to visualize your wireless networks. VisiWave directly creates a Google Earth KML file that fully depicts your WiFi coverage within Google Earth's free viewer. You can tilt, spin, and fly your way around graphic representations of your network's wireless characteristics within Google Earth.

GPS Support
VisiWave Site Survey now supports tracking your location using a standard Global Positioning System (GPS) device. Perform outdoor site surveys with just a laptop, a standard serial GPS device, and a standard wireless adapter. Note: Available only with the laptop version of VisiWave Site Survey SO or Pro. If your GPS is a Garmin USB device, check out Garmin's Spanner software.
Spectrum Analyzer Support
Are radio interference sources causing you problems? Do you even know if they are? VisiWave Site Survey has full support for collecting and mapping radio interference using the Wi-Spy™ spectrum analyzer from MetaGeek LLC.
