Summary:

Location provider for UnifiedNlp and microG using only local data.

Description:

The backend passively monitors the GPS and scans for nearby WiFis and mobile cells/towers. From this a database of emitter locations is created. When UnifiedNlp / microG request a location from Local NLP Backend, a scan for nearby emitter is initiated and a location determined based on the scan results.

Local NLP Backend is a fork of the Déjà Vu NLP Backend with some improvements and some crude UI for configuration and importing / exporting data. This backend uses no network data. All data acquired by the phone stays on the phone, though it can be exported manually.
