It is an app to contribute to open geolocation through wifi, cell towers or bluetooth beacons. This is faster, energy efficient, resilient and can be fully anonymous.

Go to beacondb.net, there is ongoing documentation. Currently Firefox, geoclue (Linux) and microG.

Theoretically a client app on Android could be done, as there is the option "spoof location" for some reason, which works without special system integration
