More options for the business hours for shops or places (WME)
In the WME, I guess we can modify the option available to define the business hours.
In France and I guess in other countries, some shops or places are closed for lunch. We should be able to define the duration of the break between morning and afternoon.
in the same way, some shops or places don't have the same business hours for each day, so we should be able to define the business hours hours day by day.
Last point is that depending on the seasonality shops or places ( for exemple on the west coast in france) don't have…4 votesGreat thinking! We’ll share with the team; they’re always interested in new feature ideas.

Make speedtraps work like House Numbers on WME
Speedtraps are hard to edit correctly on WME.
They don't snap properly, and a lot of times, they don't give a warning (when you're above the speed) because they're not snapped correctly.
Make them work like house numbers: with a direct link to the road.
Also, we could have the option to mark a speedtrap as "both ways" to reduce clutter on the navigation screen and speed up the work of Editors.3 votes -
Improve satelite image
In "Valera, Venezuela" the satelite image of Google is a real mess. I really loved the former images from the waze map. Do something google because your satelite image is not helping me to edit the roads in my city

Let's hide roads built in a small number of satellites
Do, please, so that if waze sees at least three satellites, it does not display those tracks in the map editor. It often happens that you forget to disconnect waze and go in the building. Satellite reception quality decreases. And in the editor there is a lot of chaotic tracks around the building. This prevents debris find tracks of roads that were built when waze seen enough satellites for precise positioning.

Drive to Feature on Cartouche
While editing the map I would like a separate layer so that I can make notes and pin it to areas of the map that I would like to visit. These online notes should only be viewable by the user who made the notes. It would also be necessesary to navigate to these Points of Interest and have the notes pop up so that pictures can be taken of the surrounding so that the Waze map can reflect real world situations out there on the road.
The Waze notes layer (home computer) and the Android phone should be synced so…

Autodetect road types
Road classification seems to be a large source of disagreement and unecessary effort between map editors, part because we know it is used for routing.
The classification should be autodetected based on average speeds and not editable by users, like average speed.

Route consistency and enhancements on editor route list
When opening the list of previous routes on the map editor, I'd suggest the following:
- keep routes available up to a certain limit, ideally one year (like for example foursquare does with the checkins). More than one year may be too much data on the servers, but less than one year would be too short to look at older routes.
- routes available on the editor should really be available. currently old routes are visible on the list, but then fails to load with a "permission denied". I can't understand if there's a time limit, or if the routes stop working…

Recommend change link for Parking Lot Operator Fixes
The "Add an operator to the list" link under parking lot operator selection makes it sound like you can only add new operator names.
Once you go to the link you see that the form is actually for more than additions; "Use this form to add, delete or replace parking lot operators that will be shown in the Client."
Recommend changing "Add an operator to the list" to the following "Operator list change suggestion". If you want a second line "(Add, Delete, Merge, or Spelling Correction)". This is more descriptive of what the form can actually do.

Restricted areas: L5 users can restrict Rank 6 segments
With restricted areas, a level 5 (or Level X user depending on what the final level will be when released in production/country setting) could currently add a restriction to a level 6 segment.
Steps: find a rank 6 segment, draw an area on it => The segment is restricted.
This may be a WAD (similar to closures for people who have closure permissions), but it's still risky and lowers the protection of the rank system. If the user deletes the area restriction right after the map update, the problem cannot be identified without staff intervention.

Allow taking a Place picture from Streetview
Requirements: the Streetview panel is open and the place layer is on
Then: allow creating a box on the Streetview panel. When a box is drawn add a bar saying: now select a place to apply this picture.
Add an X on the box to delete it. Allow the user to resize the box.
Set a minimum size and a fixed ratio (the one used by the client) for a decent resolution.
Drawing a new box removes the previous one if present.If then the user clicks on a place, ask him:
"would you like to set this selection as…
