  1. אפשרות לתכנון המסלול המהיר ביותר בין הרבה נוקודות יעד. אפשרות ששליחים מכל התחומים יהנו ממנה

    תכנון נסיעה למספר רב של יעדים, למשל בשביל שליחים..
    כרגע בוויז אפשר לתכנן נסיעה ליעד אחד ומקסימום להוסיף עוד עצירה אחת בדרך.
    הרעיון שלי הוא שיהיה אפשר להכניס המון נקודות יעד ושוויז ישכלל את הנתונים ויעדכן במסלול הכי מהיר לעבור בין כל הנקודות.
    בעיקר ישמש את כל השליחים שצריכים בזמן הכי מהיר לעבור
    בהמון נקודות הפצה.

  2. Display the edit history of map comments

    Currently, WME only shows the date the map comment was created and then the date it was last edited. The details in the history pane that is shown for places and road segments is not currently available for map comments.

  3. First-Time WME Login Tour / Tutorial

    Create a tour/tutorial screen that pops up when a user logs in to the editor for the first time. The screen would be greyed out except for highlighted areas, where a chat bubble would explain what that button/area in the editor is for. It would also provide the means to have the editor engage the community through the forum or Wazeopedia.

    For example:
    - "This is the layers button. You can turn on extra layers to see roads, places, comments from other editors, etc."
    - "This area contains a feed of map content, your recent drives and editable area, and…

  4. Subway station elevation

    There should be a feature that would enable editors to include the elevation of a subway station as they can do with PLAs.

  5. Retroalimentación para usuarios.

    Saludos.
    Considero interesante la posibilidad de comunicar a los usuarios que agregan lugares, fotos y sugerencias, el poder poner en su conocimiento la razón por la cual el editor no aprobó su su lugar, foto o sugerencia.
    Gracias

  6. Bilingual

    Hello. Is it possible that in the future, the names of cities may also be displayed alphabetically (Roman, Cyrillic, Chinese, etc.) to which I installed the application on the device?

  7. Hyphenated house numbers

    The Waze Map Editor should add support for addresses with hyphenated house numbers like most of the addresses in Queens. Without hyphenation, addressing is less accurate than it should be.

  8. Increase Map Editor Feed filter capacity

    I would find very useful to have available in the "Feed" of the editor the posibility of filtering, at least, per "Country".

  9. Multilingual street names

    Add the capability to add translations to street names so people who speak different/foreign languages can use the map. EX: In Israel, Google Maps has Anglicized street names, while Waze does not. As a result, the English-speaking voice in Waze cannot recite street names in Waze.

    This feature would be of great use in NYC and other cities where there are plenty of ESL speakers and people who have very limited understandings of English. Spanish would be a great language to start with.

  10. Suite/floor numbers

    Add the ability for editors to add suite and/or floor numbers for establishments. This feature would be especially useful in NYC and other cities with lots of mixed-use development.

  11. Automatic flag on unused places

    Many places in the WME are not used for various reasons: The place was closed or moved, the place was created for an event that has passed, the place was wrongly created, the place exists but nobody uses it for routing. During the years, the number of such "garbage" places is growing, and will continue to grow forever.
    There must be some way of cleaning these places from the map.
    It is suggested that every place (excluding RPP and natural features) that nobody set it as a destination for 15 months, will be automatically flagged, with a reason that the…

  12. Multiple sets of hours

    Add the capability for editors to add multiple sets of hours for an establishment. This feature would be especially beneficial for banks and pharmacies. At banks, ATMs are often open 24/7, while human tellers, consultants, notaries, and other banking personnel are not at banks 24/7. At pharmacies, the convenience store and the pharmacy itself mostly have different hours. Finally, there are some establishments with delivery hours and/or drive-thru hours that differ from the establishment's standard operating hours.

  13. Google Local

    The Waze Map Editor should permit editors to pull place descriptions from Google Local Guides since Google acquired Waze. Waze already permits editors to use Street View info. Also, Google Local Guides is a crowdsourced project, just like Waze.

    Ability to replace school zones, and online through the map editor to establish the school zone times. Allowing the mapping software to reroute out of a school zone . The ability to skip out of school zones like we do with toll roads.

  15. Inclusão de várias faixas por sentido

    Poder informar a quantidade de pistas em cada sentido, alterando consequentemente a largura do traçado exibido no WME e no APP. Essa informação poderia ser útil também para futuras inclusões de faixas exclusivas para ônibus, ou ciclovias.

  16. RESPOSTA MAPA EDITOR

    Antes da última atualização, quando o usuário reportava um erro no mapa, recebia uma mensagem na caixa de mensagens no app e era possível responder ao questionamento do editor rapidamente, dentro do app.

    Agora o usuário recebe um email com um link para entrar no site, muito mais complicado

    Sugiro que as notificações e respostas de erros no mapas sejam novamente realizadas dentro da caixa de mensagens do app. Muito mais prático!

  17. add deny last modifications on edits and lock user liké first 10 edits

    When we made modifications, add the ability to remove the edit, for exemple, an editor that does'nt came for a while doesn't know about new editing rules and made errors, if another find it, he could cancel the change, if there is more than 10% of the last 100 edit are refusée, then the user should need to pass 10 new validation before auto submitting...
    That just need to be able on the 100 last updates or 30 last days

  18. Unlimited Sign for Germany

    Hello,

    in Germany, we have no speed limit on many roads. At the moment we do not enter a limit on roads without a speed limit. However, this often leads to confusion, because users do not know if a speed limit was not entered for a segment or if there is no speed limit on this segment.

    It would be great if there was a possibility to enter a "unlimited sign" for Segments without a speed limit!

    For example, you could simply insert a symbol like this "/" into the speed field in WME and in the Waze-App users get…

  19. A true support for bilingual countries

    I noticed that Waze doesn't approach bilingual countries just like GMM does.
    For example, in GMM, we can write multiple names for the same road in 2 different languages and based on the user's current phone language chosen, the map changes accordingly.
    Unfortunately that doesn't happen in Waze, we are stuck in 1 language only, even if we add "Alternative" name.

    Here in Kuwait, we use both Arabic and English (Even street signs are written in both Arabic and English) , in Google Maps we are having no problems since most of the roads in the map are written in…

  20. Waze needs Public Toilets

    Waze app and map editor needs a new type of place: public toilet. Existing toilet attribute of the other places is not applicable to dedicated public toilets available in many large cities. Toilet place could be added into Professional and Public category. Preferably it would have some specific attributes like genders allowed or suitable, services (urinal, toilet seat, babycare table), price, wheelchair accessible, etc. but even just having the public toilet place available in the menu would be great starting point. Most often it would be a point place but somewhere in the world may exist area toilet places as…
