Sometimes to avoid battery drain i use GNS2000 via bluetooth with Bluetooth GPS app:

googoo.android.btgps

Can the local wifi database be fed from this GPS source?

This sounds like a bug/question about the local wifi backend and probably should have been asked there rather than here.

That backend simply does a passive location request and then only pays attention to reports from the source called "gps". If your external GPS feeds its information into the operating system and appears to be indistinguishable from the built in GPS it should work. If not, it won't work.

I can't tell by reading the description of the particular app you listed if it will work or not.
