console.log(byBssid['00:81:c4:e7:0e:7f'])

{
    station: '900000023101',
    type: 'platform',
    platform: null,

Data structure

index.js looks like this:

{
    'station-id-123': {
        wifi: true,
        accessPoints: […]
    }
    // …
}

An item in accessPoints should either have type: 'platform' (an access point located close to or at a platform) or type: 'other' (an access point located somewhere else). The markup for type: 'platform' is as follows:

key	description	required	example
platform	the name of the platform	no	'3a'
lines	an array of pairs: 1) a line and 2) the ID of the next station on this line	yes	[['U2', '900000022201']]
position	position of the access point at the platform, between 0 (rear end of the station) and 1 (front end of the station) ¹	yes	0.2
bssid	BSSID, lower case	yes	'00:f6:63:cc:00:9f'
mac	MAC address, lower case	no	'00:f6:63:cc:00:9f'

¹ "front end" is the end of the station that the a vehicle running at the platform points to (not where the "front end" of the vehicle will be).

Pro tip: Use vbb-stations-cli to find station IDs.
