Welcome
Welcome to the Alabama and Northwest Florida MapRaid! We thank you for registering and do appreciate whatever your contributions, whether many or few, you will make towards improving the map throughout this area in the Southeast region (SER) of Waze USA.
A MapRaid (or MR) brings editors together from across the community to focus their efforts on a defined map area for a short burst of editing activity. All participating editors will receive the ability to edit within the entire MR area. Each of you will assigned to a group with a subset of the MR area and its own list of priorities. It will be your task to work with your group to help address those objectives!
Mission & Priorities
The primary goal for this MapRaid are to clean up as many places and parking lot areas (PLAs) as possible. The number 1 task is to be detailed and make sure the places are correct: having all the correct information in them and stop points are in the correct location.
- Places.
- Parking Lot Roads (PLRs). If you wish to add PLR(s) to a parking lot, first YOU MUST address/fix all places which will use or be serviced by those PLR’s.
- Parking Lot Areas (PLAs) - Last after all above have been addressed
(These can vary by group depending on the particular needs of the area.)
Please read the entire MapRaid wiki. If you are uncertain or have questions about how to address something you see on the map, please ask your group leader.

Update Requests (URs)

Segment Locks
All of the Southeast region observes the below lock standards.
When you edit any segment during the MapRaid, please set the lock level correctly. If you are unable to lock it to the correct level, then lock it to the level of your rank and request your group leader raise the lock to the standard.
Roads may be locked higher for protection and special situations (areas with construction, tricky design, frequent mistakes, incorrect images, etc.). Do not decrease a rank just to decrease a rank, talk to your group leader before you do.
There are some cases that do not adhere to this standard, such as any theme park type areas in Orlando (5/6). Further, all gates at gated communities / private installation should be locked to at least 5.
