But the question becomes do we tag our students?

That is the sticky question.

Piggy backing on Lee, Felix and all the others… as someone who works for an 
organization that sells this stuff- WiFi location services are (IMO) useless 
(or nearly useless) for this type of contact tracing. The best you’ll get (per 
the manufacturers) is “a region” which is going to be a large square footage 
(not a single room) and not even necessarily on the same floor of the building. 
Nor even IN the building (could be outside) etc.

Having said that, if you want to try it, as someone noted there are plugins for 
not only Splunk but I know Aruba has an overlay they’re offering for free and 
Cisco has something that I hesitate to say is free but might be. So if you have 
time and resources and wanted to play, you have some no-cost options.

The best location solutions that may be integrated in to APs are BLE-based and 
out of that, the level of accuracy will always be orders of magnitude better 
than WiFi location but will vary depending on the other end – standard BLE 
chirping from things is not accurate. A BLE tag and/or phone with BLE and an 
app will be quite accurate.

We had the same discussions and the same conclusion, wifi is not good for this. 
  One reason is  you can’t trust the result.  You can’t say a person was in a 
certain building because they may have forgot their phone, not registered yet.  
 You can’t say a person was not in a building because many devices registered 
to a person are stationary and connect even when the person is not there.  So 
any data you pull is inconclusive at best.

I don't believe Wi-Fi is a good technology for this. It's nice when you can 
reuse existing overhead, but I don't think 2.4/5/6 radio is the answer. You're 
just begging for false positives.

capability to do triagulation because of AP positions.  We didn't even get into 
the privacy item, which was honestly a relief.

Several vendors are trying to monetize COVID… the Wi-Fi part (in my opinion) 
falls apart fairly quickly in spots when you start talking it through for 
contact tracing- and usually to do it you may have to buy things you don’t have 
to round out the system.



FWIW.

All,



Has anyone else been approached by AFCOTRA?

They have developed an algorithm to map Wireless users and Covid Contamination.

They want to use Wi-Fi logs to establish mapping of Covid Cross Contamination 
on campus.

(I guess linking MAC address to Wi-Fi triangulation)



Neat Idea!
