Funny, I clicked through something to a finder map the other day.  It was an 
askward interface, but it was a public wardriving database.  Some of the open 
commercial nodes were listed, but it also showed any detectable node and what 
it's status was.  It was slow, but interesting - and of course I have no idea 
what the URL was.

Google is your friend:

There are a lot of re-branded jiwire search engines too:

kcwireless.net used to have a link to a local map on nodedb.com, but they 
appear to be offline now:

Someone was asking about setting up an ad-hoc network for a festival this 
Summer.  Contact me off list please - I think I may be working on this 
already.
