An error occurred while saving the comment I think the color scheme is just fine - what is more important is to understand when the GPS traces are from. How about a slider with a control point on each end, that you can use to select the oldest and newest to display? The GPS points displayed would then be indicative of the selected date range.

Hi all,
Thanks for voting for this suggestion!
It will be integrated into the new Waze Chat feature, and is currently on the roadmap for a later phase.
We’ll be sure to update when we have a clearer picture of the timeline.

An error occurred while saving the comment This should be fairly easy to implement: for each type of individual feature we have in WME just have a flag that we can turn on and off to disable the display on the map.
I have a fairly high end system, high end graphics card and 2K (full screen) monitor. When encountering areas of the map that have large amounts of polygons (like for water objects) really can degrade the responsiveness of WME. Plus: being able to dynamically remove these objects reduces map clutter for the editor.

An error occurred while saving the comment I think this may be better described as a search issue and not really something to do with routing.
Also know that the rural address guidance is a somewhat regional issue in the US. For example, in New England we don't really have unincorporated areas that would follow guidance where the primary city may be blank and the alternate city is the USPS name.
We do have situations though where the USPS name may be different than the city, and USPS names do not necessarily align with municipal boundaries. In VT a lot of USPS names bleed over town lines.
I believe the real issue at hand is how Waze search is working. I would hope that whenever Waze finds a Waze address (that was placed by an editor and not some automated process) it would take priority over everything else -- and that should include searches against all pri and alt streets and cities.
As for the accuracy of Google Maps addresses, in VT we do have lots of scenarios where the GM address locations (passed back to Waze) are incorrect. In some cases it is apparent that the locations are the centroids of property parcels, which may be significantly different than the start of a driveway. This sometimes results in Waze routing to a location that's on the other side of a stream or even hill from where the destination should be, especially for larger parcels.
Google Maps also has a lot of erroneous street info in VT - incorrect names, incorrect placement, etc. We are nearing the end of a project to ensure Waze has every E911 street in VT correctly mapped in WME - when that's done Waze will more accurately reflect the state's roads than Google Maps. I'm sure that's the exception and probably GM for most places has a better representation of accuracy (especially in rural areas) than WME.

An error occurred while saving the comment This is a good idea. In some places in Vermont, E911 EMT services are provided by organisations separate from local fire departments. We currently don't have a good category to assign these EMT locations which are staffed typically 24x7.

An error occurred while saving the comment We have quite a bit of this in Vermont US - one editor has a spreadsheet of segments and we also put map comments over segments that are closed in the winter time. This takes a significant amount of time each year to maintain - it would be ideal if something could be integral in WME to manage this, and beyond just the ability to put recurring closures on segments. (For example, sometimes opening dates may have to be extended if snow has not been removed - we need to see a list of these types of closures.)
