1. Speed cam edits should initiate tile update

   Currently, speed limit edits depend on nearby map edits to be included in the tile update process. This seems to be an old limitation.

   It should be possible to add or edit speed cams without requiring additional edits.

2. Allow a specific path in a junction box to be Private/access only

   If we have one-way access-only restrictions, it's impossible to map this if other routes are available.

   Looking at the situation in the following graphic:
   https://imgur.com/cJEtlk2

   There's no way to get to some of the streets without using the one road that's open to all traffic.

   Having the ability to set a Private Road type to a particular route in a junction box will help resolve this situation.

3. Control point / guard house on road

   I would like to recommend Waze add a map editing / issue feature for a road control checkpoint. A checkpoint is a common element of various roads around the world and would be important for Waze to add the ability to indicate it.

4. Project Zone for Large/Difficult Projects

   Sometimes when working on large projects, it is difficult to get the timing with tile updates to make a major project (or even smaller projects) go live at the correct time. Often this is done with adding segment restrictions to new segments, waiting for a TU, then applying an RTC and removing the restriction, so that when it goes live, just the RTC has to be removed. However, this usually only works when what is added is totally new and doesn't require reuse or reconfiguring of previous segments. It is also very difficult during reconfigurations when the project all of a sudden changes over early, or has a last minute delay. If we don't catch it in time, it can require several tile updates to get WME correct, and then wait for it to go live in the app. This is frustrating for editors because it makes deadlines and sudden changes very difficult, and frustrating for drivers getting incorrect instructions.

   My idea is a project mode that allows editors to work on large projects over several days without worrying about breaking routing, messing with current configurations, breaking RTC abilities, etc... all while keeping the behind-the-scenes mess hidden from the drivers using the app. Then, with a push of a button (or a predetermined time), the "project" can be made live in the app. Further details below on potential implementations to prevent concurrency issues while guaranteeing a great experience for editors and drivers.

   1 - How to create a "project": An editor with the required rank (set by regional coordinator) selects the "Project" polygon in WME and then draws a polygon around segments that will be included in the project and gives it a name. I'll refer to this polygon as the project zone from now on. Segments inside the project zone can be any lock level, even higher than the editor that places the project zone. Segment lock restrictions function as normal. Project zones are visible on the map through a "Projects" layer. Any segment that is included in a project zone is flagged as being part of that project, and when selected, it will display which project zone it's a part of. At this point, this segment is locked from editing unless in project mode, similar to the RTC editing lock. A project zone can be expanded to include new segments, but if it's shrunk enough that a segment flagged as included is no longer included, you cannot save. The idea behind this "project zone" is to create a clone of the current status of WME so that changes done do not affect the current tile build.

   2 - Working the project: Just like we can view the previous tile build, there will be an option to view the map as it is now, or view the "project". Any editor of any rank should be able to view the project progress, even if they can't create or modify it. From inside the project mode, you simply edit as normal to the new configuration saving often, not worrying about breaking routing (remember, the current map state is unaffected by this). Once editing is complete, including verifying routing is unbroken, you will "publish" the project to the map. I imagine that every time you save while in construction mode, a check that the edit is allowed and viable is made, but not actually completed. Then, when you publish, the edits are actually published to the map. At this point, even after a tile update, the old configuration is what is used in the app and for routing.

   3 - Making the new configuration live: The previous "publish" button actually will have two options. Publish and keep hidden, or publish immediately. Publishing immediately applies all changes in the project zone to the map, and removes the project zone. It will be live after the next tile update. Publishing and keeping hidden will send all the segments in the next tile update but keep them hidden. How do you ask? Just like RTCs can immediately affect routing and affect the visual appearance, the published but hidden segments are kept invisible on the map and have an RTC applied so that traffic isn't routed on invisible segments. Then, an editor in WME can select the project zone and "switch configuration" on demand or schedule it. Upon switching this configuration, the new configuration goes live instantly in the app by making the new configuration visible without RTCs, and any old segment IDs that were not reused go invisible with RTCs. The project zone remains on the map for 2 weeks or until manually removed by an editor. The editor can switch back to the old configuration instantly if needed, such as with a delay in crossing over.

   4 - In-app experience: Won't be snapped to incorrect segments that have been moved for a new configuration. Won't need to wait days for a configuration to go live in the app, especially in the event of a tile update delay. Able to take advantage of new configuration instantly.

   5 - Benefits to editors: Able to work on big projects in chunks over time. Can start adding or changing something, save to verify that it's a valid change, and continue editing. All without worrying about breaking routing (whereas saving often normally might break routing, or require lots of extra steps). No longer need to cram a large project in between tile updates. No longer needing to hope you're available to make the change on the exact day so that the correct tile update makes it go live, but not too early or too late. You could theoretically work a change weeks in advance. Allows us to still RTC segments from the old configuration while working the project zone.

   6 - Example scenarios:

   6-1: This displaced left turn required lots of steps with time based segment restrictions set to have it open at the correct time. Due to weather, the city announced it was delaying opening it by 2-3 days. This was announced 20 minutes before a tile update that would have set the new configuration in motion. Luckily I was able to catch it and update several time based restrictions. Then, after it was live, I had to go in and clean up turn restrictions and lane guidance that was no longer needed or correct. With a project mode, all the changes would be done well in advance of it going live. Then, set the configuration to change at the correct time. If we spotted it was delayed, simply change the time and date. If we didn't, we could reverse the configuration since the project zone would still be there for up to two weeks after it was changed. https://www.waze.com/en-US/editor/?env=usa&lon=-98.07749&lat=29.72828&zoomLevel=19

   6-2: US-281 is undergoing a major expansion. Editors could work to map new freeways and frontage roads (that are probably a few weeks to a few months from being done) now while keeping the current configuration for the drivers. Then, as soon as it goes live, we can easily switch it. Currently, if we get a heads up it's opening, we'll have to get it all done in one day and hope there are no delays crossing over. If we don't get a heads up, we'll still need to try to cram it into one day so we don't break routing. https://www.waze.com/en-US/editor/?env=usa&lon=-98.44717&lat=29.68590&zoomLevel=14&mapComments=171376937.1714097047.939091

   6-3: Dividing roads. You can save often to verify that you won't receive an error while not worrying about breaking routing. No having to create bowties every few intersections to save. Simply divide as you want, saving with segments halfway complete as you cut and merge, and then once done, publish to map immediately.

   6-4: Any other project that is time consuming where you don't want to complete it in one sitting.

   7 - Closing thoughts: This is obviously a giant ask and would likely be very difficult to include. I've tried to suggest it to where concurrency with other edits won't be an issue because they'll be locked. This is a giant mental work-in-progress, so any improvements to the basic idea are more than welcome.

5. custom layers and map editor colours / themes

   so I have used Waze for a bit and I love seeing the editor map with the coloured roads, but there's a few problems...
   - no support in night mode
   - can't change the colours, even if it's there to match the sign sometimes I want to have custom colours,
   - can't have custom layers, sometimes I want to have the alternate route 1 in Melbourne Australia white or create my own custom routes. a layer I would like to create is a mobile camera colour where a road that has mobile cameras and such shows up as a custom colour.

   If you could have google maps like custom points too this would change the way people use this app, custom cafe pin points created by communities or an old lady colouring in "that one path need to travel". A lot of the time I don't want navigation per say but I still want a pointer to where i'm going if that makes sense.

6. Close places temporary just as you can with roads

   As roads can be closed between certain dates it will be great that we can also get this for places. For example when a place is going to close for temporary construction.

7. Add closed map suggestions count to profile page

   It'd be great if you could track how many map suggestions you have closed. You can already see your closed UR, PUR, and MP counts on your profile page so it would be great if closed map suggestions could also be added.

   Here is a simple mockup I made of what that could look like: https://i.imgur.com/XajOINK.png

   Great timing! We’re currently working on being able to track the number of closed map suggestion. Keep an eye out for updates on the WME.

8. Highlight Lane Guidance Icons on hover

   Currently in Lane Guidance there are the icons up the top showing the composition. It would be great if when hovering over an item it would fade out the icons that wouldn't be shown and highlight the ones that would. You're already highlighting the path on hover so it could be associated in that! I think this would be especially helpful for FL2

    Great thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

11. Show lanes configuration even if not in editable area

    The lanes tab contains the number of lanes and the lanes associated to each turn, including far turns. This is necessairy for adding lanes but also for ckecking them them.

    If an editor has no permission to edit lanes on a segment, he only sees the total number of lanes and the lane configuration as a whole.
    This also happens when the segment is not inside one's editable area.

    The problem is, this way it's not possible for editors to discuss or check a certain lane configuration together if this is outside of the editable area.

    So please show the accociated lanes to every user regardless of the edit permission.

13. When using the ruler tool in WME, please make nearby geometry handles visible.

    Currently, it is only possible to see the geometry handles when an object is selected for editing and the mouse cursor is very close. Most of the time the ruler tool is used, it is to measure the distance between nodes and/or geometry handles. It would be immensely helpful to be able to see them while using the ruler tool.

14. Add Names of Lakes and Rivers to the display in the APP

    In some areas bodies of water are significant landmarks that aid in navigation. The names of major bodies of water are shown in the Live Map already. I assume the names shown in the LM are coming from the Water Layer. Enabling these names to be displayed would be a great addition to the App.

18. Displaying of node closures on planned closures

    Node closures are great, but they can cause confusion as well. If there are road works with several phases you cannot see if the node closure is on the active closure or on the planned closure.

    Therefore I suggest to make node closures greyed out on planned closures, as you now have with the symbol for segment closures as well. Additionally or alternatively, active node closures can be made red/white instead of black/white.

19. Prompt user to save Lane changes if deselecting segment

    After editing Lanes, it's far too easy to lose the changes by accidentally deselecting the selected segment you are editing if you don't apply the changes beforehand.

    This suggestion is to recognise that changes have been made in Lanes (or road width), and prompt the user to apply or cancel the changes if they deselect the segment they are editing.

20. add RTC details to segment history in WME

    Currently in WME segment history we can see that a closure was added and when it was added, but It doesn't contain any details about the duration of the closure itself. If a closure is manually deleted by an editor I believe that also shows up in the history, but when a closure expires naturally that is not captured.

    It would be very useful if there was data about the actual closure itself. I'd like to at the very least be able to see when the RTC was scheduled to begin and end. This would help when there are URs about a road not being closed when, for instance, a road crew ends work earlier than it was planned to last.
