Philippines Area Manager Application
MABUHAY!
Hello and Welcome Pinoy Wazer,

So, you wish to become an Area Manager for the Philippines? Are you interested in helping map out your area of domicile? Read on wazer…

What is an Area Manager and what does it entail:

An Area Manager is a Waze community member (a user) who wishes to take an active and proactive role in maintaining specific areas of the Waze map. How deeply involved and how much time an Area Manager spends maintaining the Waze map varies greatly. Duties of an Area Manager include, but not necessarily limited to:

Seek to continuously improve the maps for navigation, i.e. naming un-named roads and setting turns properly.

Make changes to the map when road geometry needs to be changed, or roads added or removed from the map.

Edit road construction areas, especially for closures so that users are not routed into those areas.

Respond to and act on Update Requests from Waze drivers.

Maintain speed and red-light cameras, processing reports of devices from Waze drivers.

Process and resolve Map Errors or Problems as shown on that layer in the Waze Map Editor.

Act as a mentor to other editors, offering advice in the forums and when you see improper edits on the map.

If you would like to apply to be an Area Manager in the Philippines for your area, kindly complete the following form and your application will be evaluated and processed: https://docs.google.com/a/waze.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dGpGdTZicXpJalpBSTdvRGEtU0pTd0E6MA#gid=0

Hi kazmuth,

I am pressed to apply for area manager position as I do a lot of updating during my many ample hours. I especifically travel to cover Luzon area to widen my editing capabilities. I am very capable of making reliable editing. There are still a lot of areas to be updated Luzon-wide.

I hope my application can be given approval. (application sent)

Regards,

Hello,
I might be a newbie in waze but I travel a lot in Cebu island and occasionally in neighboring islands like Camotes, Bohol, Bantayan, Olango. I like to contribute some corrections in the map but it needs level 3. Can I be level 3?
I like to amaze my kids on how my phone tells us turn by turn instructions while driving but it sometimes it gives us “wrong turns”.
Thanks.

Hi! :slight_smile:
I have been editing for a long time now, but am only limited to editing as a level 1 editor. There are so many reports and problems that I can’t help solve because it requires level 3 or higher. Is it possible to be granted level 3 (or any appropriate level based on my edits and progress in the editor)?

Many thanks!

Hi!

I do editing whenever I want to take a break from my busy office life. I hope you can make me a level 3 editor and accept my application as an Area Manager. According to my dashboard, I already completed 666 edits :).

To our Arch wazers please accept my application for area manager of sipalay coz we’re going to have Christmas vacation on one of their resorts and still the roads are not modified for navigation. I really need to edit Sipalay’s area, coz this is my first time to go to that place and do not know yet its routes. Waze Nav would be a great help. TNX in advance :slight_smile:
