Here is an interesting (but somehow useless) thing to test with wifieye:
If you have a microwave oven then start wifieye and go to 'time graph'. Then put n900 inside the oven and close the door. The microwave oven uses microwave radiation at 2.45G which is near the 2.4G of 802.11b/g and its surrounding is very insulating at that frequency. If all goes well you should see the line of your wifi signal drop to near zero (or even disappear) when you close the door.

It would be very helpful if it could also record the GPS data of the detected networks. This would enable audit coverage maps, etc.
Another option to make a coverage map but this time indoors, where GPS is not very useful, would be making use of the accelerometer. Defining the epicenter of issue we can move with the N900 tracking and calculating the distance we have traveled.
The absolute resolution is poor - 18 mG (at 2 G sensitivity) typical. This is fine for detecting the orientation of the phone, but makes most uses that would attempt to integrate the acceleration for detection of position useless.
from wifieye import wifi r=wifi.scan() for i in r: print r[i]['essid'], r[i]['quality']['quality']

This, "RuntimeError: the sip module implements API v8.0 but PyQt4.QtCore module requires API v7.1" Can this be worked out around in the WiFiEye code?
