地點是可以在位智地圖裏搜索的目的地。 地點就跟其它導航設備里"興趣景點"相似。
區域地點是以多邊形態呈現在位智地圖。 太多的區域地點會造成地圖混亂，因為大型的灰色地帶不利於智友定位。 因此，區域地點只應用在擁有特色的地標/特別的景點。
點的地點不會在位智地圖裏顯示。 點的地點可以用來幫助智友找到公共場所，特別是那些還沒有被納入其它搜尋引擎的公共場所。
地點的類型與類別表格，可以協助地圖編輯人士決定何時用該用區域地點及何時用該用點的地點。
地點詳情
每個地點，無論是點還是區域，都應該儘可能要有更多及更完善的細節。 這包括名稱，正確的分類，完整的街道地址，城市和州。 如果任何地方沒有城市或街道，請在無的複選框中打勾。
通用選項卡
通用選項卡是您完成所有基本信息的地方：分類，名稱，描述，油站品牌，住宅/公共，國家，州，城市，街道和門牌號。
以下的加油站是區域地標的示例及其詳情：
分類
我們根據位智用戶當前搜索的內容選擇了120個類別。 我們的目標是讓其儘可能廣泛，我們理解，可能有很多地方沒有一個確切的合適分類。 對於這些地方，請使用可能包含其所在分類的類別。
- 一個地方可以被分配到多個類別
- 地點的主要分類必須第一個輸入
- 主要分類顯示時會比其他分類有更深的藍色
- 主要分類是確定其地點是點地標或是區域地標
名稱
正確的命名格式為大寫首字母 (標題模式).
當點類型地點的位置是在區域地點的範圍內時，其名稱必須包含區域地點的名稱。 如果需要， 先使用點類型地點的名稱，而區域地點名稱在點類型地點的名稱的後面，如下所示：
点类型地点名称区域地点通用名称
例如，"Faculty of Agriculture UPM" 或 "Hush Puppies Mid Valley Megamall". 有兩個例外：機場點類型地點和急診室。
主要名稱
- 必須採用字母數字格式。
- 必須遵循其商業招牌上顯示的實際名稱或其官方網站上顯示的名稱。
优先权1：正常大写单词。 优先权2： 按照其商业招牌上所显示的实际名称。 在使用注册商标/服务标志（R）的情况下， 注册商标/服务标志的拼写优先， 如果注册商标/服务标志不在优先权1的规格内。 在名称/品牌后面的TM/SM不属于注册商标/服务标记。
- 加油站的主要名稱必須清楚地標明加油站所銷售的汽油品牌。
別名
- 本地使用/知道的名稱。
- 任何不是字母數字格式的名稱。
(例如：中文, بهاس جاوي , 日本の, 한국의)
地名協調
擁有有多個分行的地點，請參考地名協調頁面中的分行定位器以驗證其正式名稱。
品牌
如果您知道加油站所銷售的汽油品牌，您應該選擇它作為品牌。 以其品牌命名的加油站，如PETRONAS，殼牌，Petron，美孚，ESSO等大公司，其品牌是很容易辨認，其品牌應該選擇。 如果加油站所銷售的品牌汽油是新的品牌，並且不在下拉列表中，請將該領域留空。
此領域僅適用於加油站。
描述
注意： 不要使用說明字段蘭來作編輯員的注釋。 此字段蘭會顯示在位智應用程式中，並且應只包含與地點本身相關的詳細信息。
Lock
Places considered fundamental to the functioning of the Waze app, such as Gas Stations, should be locked at least to Level 3 to prevent loss of data due to automatic acceptance of submissions from Trusted Users. Other complex, intricate, or crucial Places such as Police Stations, Fire Departments, Airports, Parks should also be considered for locking to prevent loss of data.
Note :-
Please lock all the moderated places at minimum Level 3.
Type
Public places can be turned into private places, but private places cannot be turned into public places. Use this to convert places mistakenly labeled as public into private. Private places only contain photos and an exact address, without all the other properties of a place.
Address
When all the detail below has been complete, click the Apply button. If no changes are to be made, click the Cancel button.
Street
- Use the Street Name that near to the place entrance.
- If the road does not have a name, the "None" check box should be selected and street name left blank.
- Only Street Name are allow. Do not include the house number and the name of residential area in the street field
House Number
- Definitions :-
- The unique number given to each building on a street which forms part of that building's address
- The street address numbers painted on a building (or an object such as a mailbox or post near the building), or painted on the curb of the street in front of the building.
- House Number is the system of giving a unique number to each building in a street or area, with the intention of making it easier to locate a particular building. The house number is often part of a postal address. The term describes the number of any building (residential or not) or vacant lot with a mailbox.
- Please do not confuse the house number with the phone number.
- Leave the House Number field blank if you don't know the place house number.
City
Use the name of the city that the place located
Country
Only Malaysia are allow in the Country field cause you are editing in Malaysia
More Info Tab
In the More Info tab is additional helpful information for the Place. Here you will add phone number, website, additional services, and hours of operation:
Services
Services help users decide if they should drive to a particular place. Here are descriptions of available services. Waze uses the same set of services for every place type. The service checkbox only has two states, 'yes' or 'no answered', thus there is no way to determine if a place either does not have a service or an editor hasn't added one yet.
Valet service The place has valet parking whereby drivers can valet their car, leaving it with an attendant who will park it for them. These services could be free or fee-based.
Drive-through The place has a drive-through window, which serves food or other items via window that allows the driver not to leave their vehicle. Restaurants, banks, and pharmacies often have drive-through windows.
Wi-Fi The place has free Wi-Fi available for customers. Wi-Fi can be completely open, or accessible with a password that the place operator supplies the user.
Restrooms The place has public restrooms where customers can use a toilet.
Accepts credit cards The place accepts any type of credit card for payment of goods or services. At this time Waze does not differentiate between credit card types.
Reservations The place accepts reservations, i.e. a reserved time for dining in the place.
Outdoor seating The place allows diners to eat outside, weather permitting. Outdoor seating may be on the curb, sidewalk, or in a fenced in area on the premises.
Air conditioning The place has air conditioning, to cool and dehydrate the air when the ambient temperature considered to be warm or hot. This may be possible to infer by looking for air conditioning condensers or chillers on roofs or near buildings on aerial photography within the Waze Map Editor.
Parking for customers The place has parking for customers where they can leave their car, which could be free or for a fee, where the customer parks their own car and walks to the place.
Deliveries At this time this service is unclear. It could mean that the place either accepts deliveries, e.g. from UPS or FedEx, or makes deliveries of food or products to the customer, within a certain range.
Phone
The phone number format are as shown on the table below.
| WazeMy Phone No. Format | Example |
|---|---|
| ZZZ-XXX YYYY | 012-345 6789 |
| ZZZ-XXXX YYYY | 011-2345 6789 |
| ZZ-XXXX YYYY | 03-1234 5678 |
| ZZ-XXX YYYY | 03-123 4567 |
| ZZZ-XXX YYY | 089-123 456 |
| 1-XXX-XX-XXXX | 1-800-88-1234 / 1-300-88-1234 |
Opening Hours
The Opening hours section allows editor to add or delete the hours of operation for Places, including unique times for each day of the week. The hours submitted in the editor may not overlap, or a save error will occur.
Photos Tab
Any photos which drivers have added to a Place will appear in the Photos tab. In WME, we can only review and delete photos. Photos can only be uploaded from the Waze app. Click on a picture to view a larger version.
Deleting a Place photo
Take great care to make a well thought-out decision to delete a photo. Once a photo is deleted, it cannot be recovered. Delete only if the photo really is unclear, not helpful and/or inappropriate.
Any improper or inappropriate photos should be removed. Hover the mouse over a picture in the Place Photos tab, and click the X which appears at the top right of the photo.
Place Updates Request (Moderation)
The Places updates layer will display Places with update request(s) pending. When an untrusted driver submits a new Place or an update to an existing Place, these go into a type of moderation status. The Place Update Request (PUR) marker shown to the left display to let you know, similar to an Update Request, the location of a pending Place update.
- The Place update request markers will only appear if you have the "Place updates" layer enabled.
- Point Places with pending updates will display with the
icon even when the "Place updates" layer is disabled. - With the Place updates layer enabled, an Area Place will display with an update request marker at its center.
- When you click on any Place which has a pending update, the following message will appear in the left tabs area of the editor screen. Clicking on it will display the update details just the same as clicking on the Place update marker.
Accept or reject? 
The job of the Waze editor is to accept or reject Place Updates Request sent by users from the Waze app. The general guideline to use to determine whether to Accept the update is,
"Is all the information provided in the update request correct and according to WazeMy Place guideline?"
A Place update, if the user completes ALL the information, can be extremely long (expand thumbnail to the right).
If some of the data is incorrect, or the photo include in the update request is improper and unhelpful to drivers, the editor must direct reject the Place Update Request and re-create the Place with all the correct information (if the Place Update Request is a newly added place).
WazeMy editor only can accept the Place Update Request with all the information provided in the request are correct and according to WazeMy Place guideline.Determining Acceptable Photos
Defining exactly what is an acceptable photo is difficult because the huge variation in destinations. In general terms, the pictures of Places should be such that a driver could use the picture to help determine exactly which destination is the correct one. The system will try to show the arriving user the most relevant photo from their direction of arrival, time of day, etc.
Take great care to make a well thought-out decision to delete a photo. Once a photo is deleted, it cannot be recovered. Delete only if the photo really is unclear, not helpful and/or inappropriate.
The following are meant as guidelines both for the editor and for users taking pictures. Photos should:
- Show the exterior of the Place and NOT the INTERIOR.
- Be clear (not blurry, through rain-covered/dirty windows, not from moving vehicles/trains, etc)
- Be well lit (not dark without lighting at night).
- Help differentiate the Place location from nearby Places.
Photos could include images of, but not necessarily limited to:
- ENTRANCES which have signage so that Wazers can identify the place
- Image of the front/side of Place (angled) to exemplify the correct building
- Include Street side signage of the Place
- Daylight images
- Night or evening images, as long as the image is clear and helps the driver identify the Place
Photos should not show :
- People's faces - any photo with a fully identifiable face should be removed, or rejected.
- Car license plates - any photo with a fully identifiable license plate should be removed, or rejected.
- Anything which allows a viewer to tie a person to a specific location will be rejected.
- Any pornographic content, nudity, sexual content or simulation, etc.
- Floor, sky, speedometer, selfie and anything that is not related to the place.
- The place photo that is upside down or slanting to one side.

Duplicate Places
When a user submits an update for a Place, but does not, or cannot, choose an existing Place in the app, it will show in the Waze Map Editor as a New Place. It could also happen that two users report a new Place at the same moment which results in two New Places.
At this time, there is no "merge updates" or "merge Places" functionality in the editor. You may have to manually copy new/updated information from the Place update to the existing Place. You cannot copy/move photos.
When you find a Place update which would duplicate an existing Place
- Copy updated valuable information from the newly created Place to the previously-existing Place
- Reject the Place Update Request
- Save
If two New Place updates which are for the same place, please approve the Place Update Request which
- Contains more than just a photo, and
- Provides useful, updated information
- No mistake in the place update request
If the criteria cannot be met the WazeMy guideline, then Reject the Place Update Request.
Place Update FAQs
Who can moderate places?
Users with Level 2 and higher can moderate within their editing areas.
What requires moderation?
- For new places: every new place which is created by a level 1 editor which is untrusted requires an approval by a level 2+ editor.
- For place updates: every update which is done for a place which is locked above the user’s level will require a moderation by a sufficiently ranked user.
- Flagged (Reported Problem): all flags (for potentially problematic images or places) need to be moderated by a level 2+ editor.
What is a trusted user?
Once some contributions by the same user have been reviewed positively by a moderator, we consider that user trusted. They can now add new places directly without any moderation. Updates to existing places are still pending a review if these places are locked.
What kind of places should we approve?
Almost anything which represents a real place should probably be approved. If a Wazer would ever make benefit from knowing that this place exists, it’s worth it. Exceptions are places which include private user information, inappropriate content, or otherwise irrelevant.
If found even 1 mistake in the details of a place , you must reject it and then re-create it accordingly.
What kind of photos should we approve?
Any photo which helps the user understand what this place is like is great. Outside pictures are even better, and we have a system that will try to show the arriving user the most relevant photo from his direction of arrival, time of day, etc. Inappropriate pictures or pictures which are not related to the place should be rejected.
Please remember - rejecting both places and photos will prevent the reporting user from getting points and might even get them blocked.
Can I partially reject an update?
Currently not. If a suggestion is only partially correct, it is recommended to reject it, save, and then re-create/edit the place.
Can I move a photo from one Place to another?
No. This function is not available in the editor
Can I move or merge any data from a duplicate Place update to an existing Place?
No. You will have to manually copy over updated information.
Can a user become blocked from adding new places?
Every user (trusted or not) can become blacklisted and banned from adding places once they have tried adding a certain amount of places or updates which have been rejected. We also track places that have been flagged and removed - if we see a pattern where a certain user created many of these, he might be blacklisted.
Who gets the points for the new places created after an approval?
Users do not get points for pending places and updates - only when a moderator approved the suggestion the user gets the points for his contribution. The moderation action itself (either a rejection or an approval) grants the moderating user with an edit point.
Do we get points for creating places from the client?
We grant the exact same number of points for the same edit whether it’s done from the client or the web editor.
Advertisers
Some places can belong to one of Waze’s advertising partners. These places will be locked for community editing for the duration of the campaign, but editors can still suggest edits - the Waze ad operations team will review and consider all suggestions to these locked places.
What is the Residential setting? Private and public places
Our main goal in this project is to improve the data our users can get about public places. Since adding places is fun and can be even somewhat addictive, we figured our users might want to add private places (their home, for instance) as well. We want to provide an outlet for that, so that we can avoid having private places wrongly listed as public.
Private places will not be searchable, and we will not expose the identity of whoever created them or attached pictures to them. We will be using the pictures and exact locations to improve our house numbers database and show photos to people driving explicitly to that address.
Private / public
Public places can be turned into private places, but private places cannot be turned into public places. Use this to convert places mistakenly labeled as public into private. Private places only contain photos and an exact address, without all the other properties of a place.

地標
即使以上的表格已註明為點，任何作為地標的地點都可以標記為區域地點。一個具有里地標性意義的地點被定義為一個 名稱，建築獨特的地點，以其罕見的高度或標誌性的外觀而聞名，通過駕駛員很容易看到和識別，這在視覺上和明顯不同於其周圍的環境。
不要混淆了地標與 參考地點。 參考地點是一個 經常靠近它的人用來進行定位的位置。每個地標都可以是參考地點，但不是每個參考地點都是地標。 例如，雙子塔是一個地標性建築物，而擁有顏色鮮艷招牌的普通輪胎店，是參考地點。
