I found on certain web site that it is possible to find location of wifi Access Point location by providing MAC address.
my question is : what is the name of API used for that , and what api do i use to get wifi AP location from MAc address (on windows)?

Look at the Google's Geolocation API Network Protocol.
There you can see the example JSON object like that:
"wifi_towers": [
{
"mac_address": "01-23-45-67-89-ab",
"signal_strength": 8,
"age": 0
},
{
"mac_address": "01-23-45-67-89-ac",
"signal_strength": 4,
"age": 0
}
]
**Google Gears API is no longer available
