Leaderboards & Statistics

Each region has a Leaderboard page (Region → Leaderboard) with statistics about the region, its wardrivers and its repeaters. There's also a Global Leaderboard across every region.

Leaderboards are refreshed once a day, so recent pings can take up to 24 hours to show up. The page shows when it was last updated.

Region Statistics

The Stats card at the top of the page:

  • Total Data Points: every ping collected in the region (all types).
  • Ping breakdown: Bidirectional (green), TX Only (orange), RX Only (purple), Discovery (cyan, including TRACE), Dead (grey) and Dropped (red). See Ping Types.
  • Active Repeaters: repeaters on the map, including Ambiguous ones. Disabled and Inactive repeaters aren't counted.
  • Estimated Coverage: the share of mapped grid squares with working coverage (BIDIR, TX, RX, DISC or TRACE). Squares with only DEAD or DROP pings count as not covered.
  • Contributors: how many different wardrivers have contributed.
  • Total Grid Squares: how many 300 m squares have at least one ping. This always uses the 300 m grid, whatever your Grid Mode setting.

Wardriver Leaderboards

Each board shows the top 10.

Points: 1 point per ping, plus 1.5 points for each square where the app's Smart Pinging saved a ping (see Top Airtime Savers).

  • Top Contributors (7 Days): points from the last 7 days.
  • All Time Legends: every point ever earned in the region.
  • Top Explorers: how many different 300 m squares you've pinged in. Being first doesn't matter.
  • Top Pioneers: squares you pinged before anyone else. One person per square, forever.
  • Top Airtime Savers: see below.
  • Most Repeaters Administered: active repeaters this person has logged in to as admin from the app.

The top three places show their rank in gold, silver and bronze.

Wardrivers are listed by device, or by their My MeshMapper account if they've linked one (all of an account's devices are combined into one row, with a 🔗 badge). Wardrivers without a name show as Anonymous and aren't ranked. Click Profiles to look up a wardriver's stats and awards.

Top Airtime Savers

When the app's Smart Pinging skips a ping because a square already has recent good coverage, that square earns 1.5 points once it's verified against the region's coverage. Each square counts once per session. This board ranks wardrivers by those points alone; they're also included in the totals above.

Repeater Leaderboards

Best Repeaters (Ping Count)

Repeaters heard directly the most times. Sort by Pings (total) or Grids (different squares heard from). RX-only pings aren't counted.

Best Repeaters (Max Range)

The single longest confirmed contact for each repeater, by ping type: BIDIR, TX, RX, DISC and DEAD. Click a column to sort by it. Distances over 500 km are ignored.

Notes

  • Ambiguous repeaters stay listed, marked with a red * ("Ambiguous ID"). Pings where their ID was ambiguous don't count towards them. See Duplicate Repeater IDs.
  • Private repeaters (🚫 in the name) show as "(private repeater)".
  • Regions that hide repeater detail don't show the repeater boards.
  • Regions that turn off duplicate detection show a warning that repeater statistics may be inaccurate.

Global Leaderboard

The Global Leaderboard combines every region and is also refreshed daily.

  • Global Stats:
    • Network: Active Regions, Countries, Repeaters, Multibyte (%), Observers and Companions.
    • Packets: the same ping breakdown as a region.
    • Activity: Data Points, Grid Squares, Wardrivers, Live Now, Users (24h) and Sessions (24h).
  • Wardriver boards: Top Wardrivers (7 Days), All Time Legends, Top Explorers, Top Pioneers, Top Airtime Savers and Most Repeaters Administered, each showing the wardriver's primary region (where they've earned the most points).
  • Region boards: Most Repeaters, Most Grid Squares, Most Data Points and Most Wardrivers.
  • Repeater boards: Best Repeaters (Ping Count) and Best Repeaters (Max Range) from every region, linking back to each repeater on its region's map.
  • Multibyte Upgrade Board: regions ranked by how many of their repeaters are multi-byte capable.
  • Scope Onboarding: how many of each region's repeaters carry a mesh scope, with a 90-day trend.

Regions that hide repeater detail or turn off duplicate detection don't send their repeaters to the global board. Their wardrivers and coverage still count.
