Announcements
HAPPY HOLIDAY'S! I'll be taking a bit of a break from map editing for a couple of weeks (we just welcomed a new addition to our family). If you have an issue or need to contact me, please send me a PM in the waze forums.
12/20/12 - New version of Map Editor released
Waze has released a new version of the map editor and we have all been very busy resolving all the system reported issue pins. I'm pleased to say that in the St. Louis area there are very few pins remaining!
Don't have "WME Highlights" ? Get is here: WME Highlights Script
This is hands down the most useful tool you can have to help you with your editing. Our area is FULL of U-Turn nodes and "Reverse Connections" from the prior versions of editors over the years. This script will assist you in finding and correcting these map errors.
12/10/12 - ALL previously unapproved (as of this date) speed and red light cameras in the area will be / should be deleted. The area speed and red light cams have been neglected to such a point that it's impossible to sort through the good from the bad.
The area's camera's have been cleaned up on a best efforts basis. Cams in likely spots should be approved, as Wazers can "vote" the camera's gone now.
Open issue list
This section is for keeping track of area's with multiple user problems reported (more than 2 in the same general area in a short time). Problems that involve multiple Area Manager's (AM), or higher to solve, or system issues that a local AM cannot resolve or needs to keep track of. This area is not to be used to keep a list of all issues, simple system and user issues should be resolved and marked solved in the WME. Once an issue is marked "solved" it can be removed by the next AM or higher to make an update to this page.
User / System | Closest Intersection | Date Started | Status | Comment |
User/System Reported | Downtown St. Louis area | 12/14/12 | On-Going Efforts | The Downtown area is full of issues. I've been cleaning up 1 block around problem reports for now, when problem reports slow down I'll extend the range. |
User/System Reported | Clayton area | 12/20/12 | On-Going Efforts | Many reverse connection and U-Turn nodes in the area. |
User/System Reported | Missouri Botanical Gardens Area | 12/30/12 | On-Going Efforts | The area between S Kingshighway and S Grand is a mess. I've promoted those to Minor Highways to assist with routing and promoted Shaw Ave to a Primary street. I've also corrected nodes so that Waze should be able to route you to the Gardens now with little effort. The rest of the area needs major clean up though. |
