Various embodiments include methods and a server implementing the methods for generating crowd-sourced navigation data. The methods may include receiving, by a server, location data from a plurality of wireless communication devices, and generating, by the server, topological map data based on the location data received from the plurality of wireless communication devices. The location data received from the plurality of wireless communication devices may include an altitude, a latitude, and a longitude, and at least one of a medium access control address, a time stamp, a round trip time, a received signal strength indicator value, a reference signal received power value, a reference signal receive quality value, and a service set identifier. Methods may further include receiving location data from an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), generating navigation data relevant to the UAV using the generated topological map data, and transmitting the navigation data to the UAV.
