  3. Traffic data layers in WME for advanced editors

    It would be useful for editors investigating routing issues and making mapping decisions to have a configurable traffic data layer in WME that could show a variety of information collected from drivers. This would include statistics such as the average number of Wazers driving on the segment per day, speed percentiles for drivers on the segment, the "freeflow" speed that Waze is using in routing, and the amount of times that the routing server has used the segment. It would also be useful for editors to be able to see locations where the app consistently has trouble snapping drivers to…

  4. Multiple entry points

    Waze should re-enable its multiple entry points feature (eg one side of building or another).

    Instead of using the first entry point, Waze users should be directed to the one that’s marked as the main point in the editor.

  5. 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

  6. Possibilità di vedere i distributori lungo la strada senza doverne fare una ricerca.

    Sarebbe utile vedere se lungo la strada che si sta percorrendo (con o senza destinazione assegnata) ci si avvicina ad un distributore senza doversi fermare per farne una ricerca apposita.
    Grazie.

  7. Display clogged and cluttered with senseless labels of streetnames

    Quite often, in dense areas, the display of my cellphone is cluttered with adjacent streetnames shown as big labels. These labels/names hide the map details (i.e. approaching turns, exits etc.). So I am distracted by zooming in and out and panning the screen.
    I would REALLY like the opportunity, to switch OFF the streetname label.

  8. Extra click required before moving place point

    After WME v2.115, a place point requires 2 clicks to move it. When creating a new place point, you can add the stop point. But to move the place point, you have to de-select the place point then re-select it.

  9. Make the roads bigger on smartphones

    I would like to be ble to correct directly from my smartphone (i.e. Android)
    It is perfect from a laptop.
    But on smartphones, roads are too small.
    If it is possible to make them bigger only for smartphones that would be perfect

  12. Emergency vehicle specific routing

    Emergency vehicle specific mode. I suggest creating an emergency, or non-emergency mode, which takes into account the physical size and weight of an emergency vehicle along with handling characteristics and a local jurisdicitons guidelines for how emergency vehicles can and should be operated.

    These are then used to feed you directions that are ideal for your emergency vehicle taking into account shortcuts, restricted access routes etc.

  13. Tell the editor why they can't edit Far Lanes

    If you're below the required editor level to edit Far Lanes, then the Far Lanes interface is visible to you when editing Lane Guidance, but it's dimmed out - and there's no explanation why. For example, in Australia, Far Lanes requires Level 4 or higher - but nowhere in the Waze Map Editor does it mention this. For the user editing, the Far Lanes interface just appears greyed out for them for no apparent reason.

    All that needs to be added is some kind of message that says "You need to be a higher level to edit Far Lanes" whenever…

  16. Add postal codes/ZIP codes to Waze address editor

    When a Waze app user searches for an address added using the Waze Map Editor, it does not show the postal code. But with Google addresses, the postal code is shown. Please add postal codes to the WME.

  19. Display locations where drivers often deviate from Waze directions

    Locations where drivers frequently deviate from Waze directions may indicate mapping errors such as missing or incorrect turn restrictions, confusing turn instructions that drivers misunderstand and take a wrong turn, or poor routing where drivers know a better route than the one provided by Waze. It would be helpful for editors to have this data as an additional tool to detect possible locations for improvements to be made to the map.
