 While road treatment is covered [https://wiki.waze.com/wiki/Private_Installations here].
- This is particularly important if you have access to these locations as a resident, worker, or visitor and use that access to learn something about the Private Installation. A general rule is to not mark specific locations with a Place unless the public installation website provides that information via directors or maps. Specific examples of what '''not to map''' include organizational names occupying buildings, building numbers, hangar numbers, etc. when they are not publicly available. Examples of items to usually map include gates, visitor access points, and frequent destinations like marching fields, parks, museums, on-base schools, etc.
