Thank you and welcome to the American Great Plains! Thank you for your assistance, big and small, in improving the map throughout Nebraska and Iowa. A MapRaid (or MR) is a gathering of editors from across the editing community to work together to edit an area of the map for a short burst of activity. While you as an editor will receive an editing area for the entirety of both states, you will receive a grouping, each of which has a subset of the area and a set of priorities for what is most needed in that subset. It will be your task to work with your group to help achieve those priorities! | Thank you and welcome to the American Great Plains!

There are 2 primary goals for this MapRaid which vary depending on the group you have been assigned. For the urban groups, your primary goals will be to bring our places up to region standard and tackle any remaining items from our recent falcon and shield pushes. For the rural areas, your primary goals will be to match the basemap to the Plains region guidelines and assign segments proper speed limits. See the appropriate wikis in the resources section of this page to see how PLN handles road segments, places, etc.. | There are 2 primary goals for this MapRaid which vary depending on the group you have been assigned.

NE-IA MapRaid ended on 13 Aug 2021 23:59:00 UTC. Please check back here for results and check the Mapraid Forum for mapraid announcements. |
Welcome
The NE-IA MapRaid will be 31 July 2021 at 19:00 UTC through 13 August 2021 23:59 UTC (approximately).
Thank you and welcome to the American Great Plains! Thank you for your assistance, big and small, in improving the map throughout Nebraska and Iowa. A MapRaid (or MR) is a gathering of editors from across the editing community to work together to edit an area of the map for a short burst of activity. While you as an editor will receive an editing area for the entirety of both states, you will receive a grouping, each of which has a subset of the area and a set of priorities for what is most needed in that subset. It will be your task to work with your group to help achieve those priorities!
Mission
There are 2 primary goals for this MapRaid which vary depending on the group you have been assigned. For the urban groups, your primary goals will be to bring our places up to region standard and tackle any remaining items from our recent falcon and shield pushes. For the rural areas, your primary goals will be to match the basemap to the Plains region guidelines and assign segments proper speed limits. See the appropriate wikis in the resources section of this page to see how PLN handles road segments, places, etc..
Priorities
These may vary additionally by the needs of individual raid group areas.
Metro (IA - Des Moines, NE - Lincoln/Omaha)
- Bring point/area places to region standard
- Lane guidance and shields (NOTE: Nebraska's state highways shields have not been implemented by Waze yet)
- Address un-falconed roads (See Falcon Snapper Guidelines)
- PLAs
- Check surrounding rural areas for rural priorities to be completed
Rural (All other groups)
- Fixup basemap, associated functional classification, turns, and segment connections
- Add shields and specify shields on turns
- Speed limits/marking segments unpaved
- Complete state/national parks and cemeteries to national standards
Who
North American and US Territory Based Editors
Hosts
Communication
All raid communications will be in special raid channels on the Waze Plains Editors Discord server.
Raid group areas
Important / Mapraid guidelines
Please read the entire MapRaid wiki. If you are uncertain what to do about something you see on the map, please ask your group leader.
When you are editing in the raid area, please set yourself visible and enable the Live users layer.
Edit quality and mass editing
You are responsible for every edit you make, whether you make it by hand or use a script. Every edit you make should meet the goals of this MapRaid and make a noticeable improvement to the map. Do not make edits simply to gain points without improving the map. If a segment is "good enough" for the Waze map, do not edit it. If it looks like you are making unnecessary edits or hunting for points, you may be banned from this MapRaid and from future MapRaids.
Editor restrictions
Map editing restrictions that affect editors based on editor level remain during the raid.
Time zones
For relevant WME interfaces that display in the editor's browser time zone, Iowa and the eastern two thirds of Nebraska are in Central Daylight Time (UTC -5) for this raid. Only Group 1 will have to be aware of the fact that a large portion of their assigned area shall be in Mountain Daylight Time (UTC -6) for the duration of the raid.
Road Types and Functional Classification (FC)
Road type classification is a focus for our rural areas; however, most segments higher than a primary street should have already been appropriately assigned. Check with the appropriate state's wiki and/or raid leadership if you have a question about the current classification of any road segment.
Micro-doglegs
Replace any micro-doglegs (mDLs) with turn instruction overrides (TIOs), and be sure to delete the geometry nodes that were used to create the micro-dogleg. If you find an intersection where you believe preserving the micro-dogleg is preferred, please escalate to your raid group leader.
Driveways
Many rural driveways are mapped in the Plains region.
Rural driveways in Nebraska and Iowa should frequently be mapped (as Parking Lot Roads), even if shorter than the general Driveways recommendation of 50 meters. Drivers will often be travelling at a high speed, and an upcoming turn provides advanced warning of their destination. Driveways also serve as useful navigation landmarks on otherwise featureless rural roads, especially during night time navigation. If they are not mapped, a Wazer driving on one may be mistakenly snapped to a nearby road and interfere with the speed data or provide confusing directions.
If the addresses for properties on the driveway are known, delete the relevant House Numbers and add Residential Place Points (RPPs).
- The RPP must be complete including the address number, street name, city name, and entry/exit point as noted in the Things to remember section of the HN page under the If the correct stop point for a house/business is on a different road than its address road bullet point.
- Ensure the entry/exit point is placed clearly to one side of the road segment, not on top of the road segment.
Urban driveways do not qualify for mapping in most circumstances unless they meet certain route-aiding criteria as defined in the national standards for Driveways.
U-turns
Both States - Allowed except where prohibited by sign.
Implementation For Waze routing, u-turns should ONLY be enabled where they provide the potential for improved routing, which includes recovering from missed turns. A common example is a median-divided primary street that has homes/businesses with their driveways/entrances directly on it, where reaching them would otherwise require lengthy, multi-turn deviations through side roads in order to end up on the correct side of the median.
The u-turn must also meet the following criteria:
- The u-turn is explicitly allowed by signage or is otherwise legal and safe.
- The turn can be completed in one continuous movement.
- There is at least 15 meters (49 feet) from the right edge of the legal departure lane to the right edge of the "destination" curb (49 foot turning circle).
- There is no sign prohibiting a u-turn.
Note that when editing, a functional u-turn can arise from more than just the u-turn flag on a road segment, such as with these common scenarios:
- Divided roads with box and partial-box intersections where the median segment is 15 m (49 feet) or longer.
- Divided roads with explicitly-mapped inside turn lanes unless the turn arrow in the u-turn direction is disabled.
Toll roads
 |
Regardless of editor rank, do not alter any toll road segments without consulting your group leader who will escalate to raid leadership. |
Cameras
Do not add, remove, or edit any cameras.
Update Requests (URs)
Leave responding to URs to local editors. They are not in scope for this raid.
Map Problems (MPs)
- Do not auto-create parking lots from Map Problem suggestions. Map them manually per guidelines.
- Bring Parking Lot Areas to regional standards before closing the Map Problem.
Speed limits
Nebraska (§ 60-6,186)
- 75 mph maximum on most segments of freeway
- 70 mph on improved four-lane highways
- 65 mph on improved highways and some urban sections of interstates
- 55 mph on two-lane paved highways, unless otherwise posted
- 50 mph on any gravel or not dustless highway
- 25 mph in residential areas, unless otherwise posted
- 20 mph in business districts, unless otherwise posted
- All speed limits are enforced as posted.
Iowa (§ 321.285)
- 70 mph: rural interstates, as posted
- 65 mph: rural limited-access and other divided highways, as posted
- 55 mph: urban interstates and highways, as posted
- 55 mph: state-numbered, state-maintained rural highways
- 55 mph: county highways, as posted
- 45 mph in any suburban district, as posted
- 20-30 mph in cities, towns, and villages, as posted
- 25 mph in any residence or school district, as posted
- 20 mph in any business district, as posted
- 50 mph on rural unpaved roads
Segment Locks
All of the Plains 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.
| Segment Type | Lock level |
|---|---|
| Freeway | 4 |
| Ramp | Highest rank of connected segments |
| Major Highway | 3 |
| Minor Highway | 3 |
| Primary Street | 2 |
| Street | 1 |
| • • • • Ferry • • • • | 5 |
| |-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-| Railroad |-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-|-| | 2 |
Note: All Toll Roads are to be locked at a minimum of 5.
Places
| Place type | Lock level | Special instructions | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Military installation / Airport | 4 | ||
| Hospitals / Urgent Care / Police & Fire Dept | 4 | Map non-24/7 urgent care as a place point even if a standalone building | |
| National & State Parks and Monuments | 4 | ||
| Gas Stations / Charging Stations | 3 | Map charging stations as place points | |
| Schools / Universities / Colleges | 3 | ||
| Government Buildings / Consulates | 3 | ||
| City and Local Parks | 3 | ||
| Malls | 3 | Map to the building outline not the fence line | |
| All other places with complete information | 3 |
Hours of operation: For locations with different hours of operation for service types (i.e. lobby vs. drive-thru) use the set with the longest duration for the place's open hours and write the other hours into the description.
City names
This is clarification for city name guidance done during this MapRaid. If you have any other questions or concerns please involve your group leader. Please ensure that you have the Recommended Tools installed as these will help with identifying City/CDP and USPS zip codes.
The city name for the primary name is either the Census Designated Place (CDP) name, incorporated city name, or None.
- If the segment falls within a city or CDP, the primary segment name should include that city or CDP, and all alternate segment names should also include the same city or CDP. As needed, USPS zip code cities may be added as alternate city names.
- If the segment falls outside of a city or CDP, then the primary city name should be left blank and the
Nonecheckbox selected. The primary segment name should be duplicated in the alternates and all alternate names should use the USPS zip code city name. Do not check "None" for any of the alternate city names
- If the segment runs along the border between two cities or CDPs, the USPS may be able to provide a tiebreaker (be sure to manually check any result suggested by the US Government Boundaries script). If there is no USPS tiebreaker one city should be arbitrarily selected as the primary city name and used consistently for all similar segments for that area. The primary segment name should be duplicated in the alternate names section using the second city name, and all alternate segment names should be entered using both city names.
- If segment falls outside of a city/CDP but borders two USPS zip code cities, the primary city name should be left blank and the
Nonecheckbox selected. All segment names should be entered as alternates using both city names.
Major issues to address after the MapRaid
Any major issues that need to be addressed will be followed up on by local editors after the MapRaid's conclusion. Issues such as city name merging, large scale renaming (primary or alt), etc., will be handled later. Please notify your group leader of any large issues you find.
Resources

Tools and scripts
There are many scripts and extensions that editors use to assist with editing that not only make some jobs easier, but verifies what we do is correct. The use of these scripts is highly encouraged and those listed below are the ones you should install, at a minimum, to get started.
Toolbox
Once you have installed Toolbox, press the Toolbox Icon and select a minimum of the following options:
TamperMonkey
You will need to install a browser extension to manage the additional scripts. Some scripts do not work with the current version of GreaseMonkey so we recommend installation of TamperMonkey.
Raid-specific scripts
Essential scripts
- GIS Layers
- GIS Buttons (for when Layers do not have options for the area)
- WMEPH
- WME Toolbox
- WME Magic (especially for working on Basemap)
