Revision as of 03:43, 17 April 2016
 |
Registration for NYC UR Mapraid 2016 is now closed. NYC UR Mapraid 2016 will run from 18 Apr 2016 0:00:00 EST until 19 Apr 2016 23:59:00 EST (approximately 48 hours).
|
The NYC UR Mapraid will be 18 Apr through 19 Apr 2016. This is a self-run UR MR with the editors that have existing (and overlapping) Editing Areas in NYC. No additional areas will be requested from OrbitC (PM [Help]) 
and the Waze Team. The participants will focus on the 5 boroughs of NYC. This raid will be a coordinated effort across the NYC Counties of Kings (Brooklyn), Queens, New York (Manhattan), Bronx, and Richmond (Staten Island). The Raiders will consist of a combination of Local, Senior, and Out-of-State Editors. Some Northeast Champs will also be available during the raid for assistance.
Goals
Our goals are:
- Primary Goal: Reducing/Eliminating the "dead weight" of URs in NYC and replying with the best possible "closing" response
- Documenting any fixable URs in the UR Cleaning Day Spreadsheet, and the UR marked as "Solved" with the proper response
- Quick fixes can of course be implemented, and the UR marked as "Solved" with the proper response
- For Speed Limit related URs that cannot be added due to Lock Level, use the Speed Limit Request Form, and close the UR with the "Speed Limit" Response
- Secondary Goal: Going through the UR Cleaning Day Spreadsheet and working to fix the documented URs
- Tertiary Goal: Adding additional comments to URs without any initial request for information, or to URs ready for a reminder
- Reach Goal: After NYC is complete, and if there is enough time, we can consider moving into Long Island URs as well.
- Please Note: This is only a reach goal and will be limited to the editors who have editable areas in Long Island (Nassau County and Suffolk County).
Please also make basic common-sense edits as you work on the mapraid goals -- fix bad turns and other obviously wrong information on the segments you are editing, but keep focused on the mapraid goals.
Typical Responses for NYC
- No Reply - Close Message
- Speed Limit
- Obsolete UR Information
- Obsolete Closure Information
- Obsolete Traffic Information
- Obsolete Construction Information
- In-App Only Feature
- Bad GPS (Especially true in Manhattan)
- Parallel Snapping (True anywhere in NYC where there are 'Service Roads' (known elsewhere as 'Frontage Roads')
There are hotspots where some of these responses apply to URs. They would fall under the "cannot be solved in WME" category, and should be closed with the proper response, and marked NI, even if this will be the only comment on the UR. This becomes especially important as we head towards the Tertiary Goal - adding new comments. Don't guess -- consult with a local who is familiar with driving in certain areas where, for example, GPS errors always occur.
For Closure related URs, please consult with someone on the NYC RTC Team {Rfrsw101, jdelosa, and johnsninja58}. There is a good chance that Closure related URs came up because of events that we completely missed, ended too soon, or ended too late. These can be verified on a spreadsheet that the RTC team has access to, and those URs taken care of.
Communication
When you are editing in the raid area, please set yourself visible and enable the Live Users layer. We will use GHO Channel created for this raid.
