  1. Allow addition of new traffic signal or stop sign where one did not previously exist.

    Allow editors to add a new traffic signal or stop sign. Allow alert similar to RR crossing sound. Set alert to expire 30-45 days after signal or stop sign is put into service.

  4. Add ability to mark Map Comments as critical with increased visibility

    Please add a way to mark some Map Comment (MC) points as "critical" (as opposed to "informational"), with increased visibility. Instead of a small white dot, for example, you could display a slightly larger black-and-white or red-and-white bullseye. You could perhaps even add (gentle!) animation, such as gradual pulsing.

    Why do I suggest this? Several times now, I have encountered oversights by editors who seemed to have missed important information in a nearby MC Point. These well-intentioned but uninformed edits degraded the driver experience until they were discovered and repaired. I've asked around and have come to three conclusions:

  5. timeline

    I was accessing the app to see if there was a timeline history on my account as I was trying to see the routes I have been following to compare with other applications and see which ones provide the best routes.
    Recently I experienced some long routes in waze that could have been avoided.

  6. Place Hours: Sunrise to Sunset

    When adding Places, especially outdoor places (such as parks, playgrounds, beaches, etc), there are often posted hours saying the Place is open only sunrise to sunset, or conversely that the Place is closed sunset to sunrise. Unfortunately, the existing Place hours interface doesn't allow for these kinds of hours, only HH:mm times. As sunrise and sunset times change constantly, and in some places drastically due to orbital motion of the earth and time changes due to daylight savings times, it is impractical to estimate open/closing times using HH:mm formats.

    It would be beneficial to both app users and map editors…

  7. 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.

  8. ability to write/entered info while reviewing images in UR

    Hi
    It is difficult when accepting user requests (if they contain a picture) and a name is not entered, for example.. to transfer the name from the shop board and to write at the same time.. because the way pictures are displayed in the map editor prevents you from writing if you only display any A picture, why can't we write in the side panel of the information and at the same time look at the pictures "the store's billboard" and transfer any information from it so that everything is added accurately?

  13. In the APP: Allow continued writing after selecting a suggestion when writing addresses.

    When typing in the app, you suggest what i want to write below the input box. That's all fine, except if i select one of your suggestions it doesn't let me continue writing (rather, it uses the selected option directly). This is very frustrating since most of the times your suggestion is only almost correct (lacking house number, etc). It would be much better if your suggestion filled the input box and then let me continue writing before using the selection.

  14. No feedback provided if permalink is unable to select items

    Currently there is no feedback given if one or more items are not selected when opening a permalink (i.e segments, places, URs, etc.).

    For instance, I have a document with PLs of segments that are always closed during events (such as stadiums). If a segment ID is changed and therefore no longer linked in the PL, I have no way of easily knowing this.

    Please consider providing some sort of warning if WME is unable to locate all the linked items.

  15. Center the elevation in the box

    When editing the elevation, currently the number in the elevation box is left justified. This puts it right next to the negative (-) sign making it look like it is a negative elevation.

    I recommend center justifying the number to make it more obvious what the actual number is.

  18. Make editor impact more obvious

    Drivers get a regular report of their reporting impact, such as how many reports and how many people were impacted and helped. It would be nice if WME did something similar. Perhaps in the editing history show some statistics to allow editors to see their impact for edits.

    Such as:

    Segments: Give a rough estimate of how many drivers navigated to a destination on this segment or traversed the segment (such as navigated to a PP with a stop point or to a HN).

    Places: How many users have searched for / navigated to this place.

    Under each edit in…
