Animal Crossing and Equestrian Road Usage Attributes
Requesting a feature in Waze Map Editor that allows editors to assign permanent animal-related road attributes to road segments.
Many roads are marked with official signs indicating wildlife crossings, or regular use by horse riders. These represent ongoing, predictable conditions rather than temporary hazards, but there is currently no structured way to reflect them in the map.
This feature should allow editors to tag roads with:
Animal crossing (e.g., wildlife such as deer or moose)
Equestrian road usage (roads frequently used by riders)
Making these attributes visible to drivers would improve awareness and safety, especially on rural or mixed-use roads…

LPG (GLP) stations
I would like to suggest adding LPG (GLP) stations as a specific fuel category in the app. In the Dominican Republic, a large percentage of vehicles run on LPG, and it is currently difficult for users to locate these specific stations quickly. Adding a dedicated filter or icon for LPG would greatly improve the navigation experience for thousands of drivers in the region.

Visualizzazione della velocità media rilevata dal tutor
Visualizzazione della velocità media rilevata nel tratto stradale (inizio e fine) dove è presente il tutor in modo da capire se siamo nella media o se stiamo commettendo un infrazione.

Set user level using points
I've been an active user on waze for over 10 years reporting items like police cams and intermittent construction. In order to make any edits to the map requires level 3 which currently requires 5000 edits. Add an additional way to achieve higher levels based on user points. For example I have 239,582 points and it doesn't seem they are really useful for anything.

WME should indicate when a segment end overlaps but is not connected
Firstly, take a look at this image:
As per the screenshot, these segments are NOT connected but it looks like they are. It should be obvious in WME when segment ends are close but not connected. In this screenshot, the little dot on the green segment looks like there's a junction node there, but in reality, there is not.
Please make it clear that segments aren't connected when they probably should be.

Police Drone
Add “Police Drone” to the police options. They are being used on major Ohio interstates.

when reporting errors on the map, there is no option to correct speed limits that are incorrectly shown by waze
If you notice a wrong speed limit indicated by Waze, there is no easy option on the app to report or even correct the speed limit even if you are seeing it as a perm change and not a temporary decrease speed limit

Vacation Mode for POI's
Would like too add a "vacation" mode for POI's like restaurants so you can make them temporarily closed.

Add bicycle and pedestrian options for 'walking distance' so Branded Pins can show local businesses.
Some areas have some many local businesses that may not 'advertise' per se, but have a lot to offer. These 'hidden gems' may not be known to 'passers through' or visitors. This could help sustain and local businesses that are great to visit on foot.

Please add Silvertown and Blackwall tunnels in "Passes and permits". At this moment it's missing in there. Thank you.

Eliminate Heuristics and auto-generate paths instead.
Heuristics are hidden behind so many elements of the map nowadays. As a result, editors are often expected to read multi-page documentation to understand how to take advantage of them or how to avoid unintended behaviour. In practice, even experienced editors frequently are unaware or uneducated, making this expectation especially unrealistic for new editors.
My suggestion is to eliminate heuristics altogether, and replace them with auto-generated explicit paths/TIOs/etc. Whether it's an H or an # junction, traffic lights, turn instructions, u-turns, etc, everything should be visible and unambiguous in the editor.
Some examples:
1) if a u-turn in an H…103 votesGreat timing! We’re currently working on it. Keep an eye out for updates on the WME.

Display the capture date of Satellite imagery
There are solutions to find the capture date, but they are cumbersome and outside of WME.
From discussions with staff, I've been told that the date is present in the data Waze receives from Geo, so please please please surface the capture date of Satellite imagery in WME.

Отмечать не рабочие камеры
Дать возможность водителям отмечать что в населенных пунктах не работают камеры (радары) измеряющие скорость
Просто часто в Европе существуют коробки где уже нет камер для замера скорости при въезде в наследный пункт и выезд
И на картах Waze они отмечены как рабочие хотя они пустые (там видно )1 vote -
POI statistics
Hello. It would be a great help and of interest to every community to have click statistics for POIs (points of interest). This would allow for greater attention and care when managing them, and even enable a specific lock level for a given POI based on its search popularity or click rate.

Time Based Permanent Hazards
Some permanent hazards can be time-based, especially if the local community maps them when they actually alert the driver about a hazard. For example, complex intersections might be complex only at night because of poor visibility, but during daytime the visibility is perfect, and the hazard is not needed.

PERMITIR PROGRAMAR ALARMA PARA QUE SE ACTIVE AL LLEGAR A UN LUGAR DESEADO

Visual only Traffic Lights
Hi Waze Team and Community,
I’d like to suggest the implementation of a visual-only Permanent Hazard for traffic lights (eg. located at pedestrian crossings that are not part of an intersection or junction).
Currently, to map a traffic light, we often have to split segments to create a junction. However, on long roads with simple pedestrian crossings, "breaking" the segment can negatively impact routing data and unnecessarily complicate the map.
Having a specific "Traffic Light" hazard (similar to the "Red Light Camera" but without the enforcement/fine implication) would allow:
Better driver awareness of upcoming stops for pedestrians.
Cleaner map geometry,…7 votes
