Wrong definition of Arabian Gulf

Post by IMDashti
It seems that Arabian Gulf is not well defined next to Kuwait.

First, it seems that it is named Arabian Sea, which is wrong. I had to add two waterbodies (Kuwait Bay and Arabian Gulf) immediately next to Kuwaiti coasts to prevent the wrong name from showing.

Second, the lines of the ill-defined sea cuts through many residential areas stretching from Fahahil on the south to Salwa and Mishref in the north. It causes these suburbs to have a blue background instead of the usual white (see pic). I finished defining most of the coasts of Kuwait Bay up to Doha, and will finish the rest in the near future. I also worked on the coasts of Arabian Gulf and I finished from Cape Salmiyah to the south of Salmiyah. But the ill-defined sea has to be taken away from the residential areas.

I don't seem to see how this wrong Arabian Sea is added to the map. It seems a high-level layer that cannot be edited using the Editor. How can we fix that?

The problem is now worse as it is now covering all the eastern shores of Kuwait City.

The problem does not show on the editor map. It shows only on the live map and maps in the Waze app. This a link showing the southern part of the problem in the live map:

And this shows the northern part:

Hi,

Ask houstonmg or asterix06 to ask Waze staff for that! ;)

Only them can do that. But it may take long time to have the right name or to fix the sea at the proper location

Good luck
