A similar project that also tracks cell towers and bluetooth beacons in addition to WiFi is https://beacondb.net . Since Mozilla Location Services shut down they have been a good alternative for geolocation and they are public domain. Unfortunately, data dumps are currently not available, though.

If you want to be excluded from this - as well as from: Google, Microsoft, Apple lists- you have to add ‘_nomap’ to the end of your wifi name.

I still go around and war drive and upload em to WiGLE!

They make it really easy now. They even have an app you can download on your phone and just open up while driving and start logging and then it just uploads it to WiGLE when you hit stop.
