Sorry I should have included a better picture sooner, I was busy with some other commitments this morning. Picture of issue. The link to the left hopefully helps to explain this further. The blue pin is where waze shows the result for 50 Hemlock Pl. The Red cross is where 50 Hemlock Pl really is. I have entered this as a House number on the street address, and there is also a residential place for 50 Hemlock Pl at the correct location. These have both been there since before the last tile rebuild.

Currently the livemap and waze app both result in the pin location, not the Red plus location where the actual address is.

qazxcvbnmm: Could you confirm that the address you are seeing in the livemap is the red cross location from my picture above and not the blue pin location?

hmarian: There is a residential place entered for 50 Hemlock Pl. I had this before putting in house numbers on the street, and I had the same problem at that time. Currently both HN and residential place are entered.

Mushy, I know about the auto-complete issue. I don't use the auto-complete, so that is not the issue presenting in this case.

The livemap is still showing wrong, and I just tested using my phone, and something very strange happened. I got the right spot for the address, so I tried searching 46 Hemlock Pl, which gave the wrong address. I then tried 50 Hemlock and it is wrong again. I wonder if there is an issue with some caching results in my phone? The livemap isn't really and issue, just something I'm using for troubleshooting.

Do you know if there is a way to delete cache memory results in the Waze app?

This is all working now. Seemed to be cached results in the client possibly. Waiting a couple weeks has all cleared up.

My suggestion would be to test changing the HN to residential places.
It should take immediate affect on the map and could be tested right after this being saved.

Waze is in a process of eliminating the HN interface and at some point all the HN database from Waze will be converted into residential places.

Please try my suggestion and let us know if this worked out.

When I search for "50 Hemlock Pl, Winnipeg, Manitoba" I see the marker exactly where the Red marker is.
It could be that the tiles updated to get the house numbers populated properly.
Can you test locally and see that this addresses are correct?

I don't have a solution but another piece to the puzzle.

In reading a forum post on residential place markers, I found the following post from Ontario, which points to an issue finding addresses using the "auto-complete" suggestions versus a full search.

In this case, if I start typing 50 Hemlock and select the address from the list below, I am given the Blue Pin point. Where as, if I search for "50 Hemlock Pl, Winnipeg, MB" I am given the correct location as show in a screen shot from the App.

Any ideas on why?

Auto complete is using a Waze algorythm that decide if there is a match between the information coming from Waze and Google and which one to display.
Waze will add some visibility to this process within WME and allow editor to influence what is showing.
I don't know when this will start be tested in Beta WME but this is the plan.

When I search in the live map I'm given your highlighted location.

Okay, live map search is at the blue pin. WME search is at the red cross. Sorry for the confusion.
