Hi,

I'm happy to let you know that due to your hard work, the petrol pricing feature is now up and running in Australia !!!
You did an amazing job in mapping the stations and thanks to your hard work the Oz community can now enjoy this feature.
Implementing this feature is an important milestone in a communities growth and we are hoping that it will bring more users and more editors to the local community.

Thanks again

Amit

Wondering what the defination was for a 'Servo'.
Reason I ask is that I sometimes fuel-up at unmanned stations, using a card & pin for payment. I've noticed a couple of these mapped. Do they qualify???

I think they would, I have mapped a few, you see these more in the rural areas but there are some in the metro areas as well.

New stats have been put up from November 4. We've been making progress. In about 3 weeks, 309 new stations, so an average of 100 a week being added is quite impressive. Great effort being made!

As of November 24, there are 3880 servos mapped in Waze, or approximately 62.1% of all servos in Australia.

We need between 70-75% (4375-4687) of stations to be mapped before Waze will enable fuel prices for us. We're not too far away now mates!

In about 3 weeks, we have gone up over 4% and have added 257 more stations! Great work to all who have been helping!

Only about 350 more stations to map now to reach 70%!

I'm currently going through the BP list for Victoria and adding some when i've got spare time, to help speed things up!

Thanks for all your hard work Sam in regards to mapping the vast majority of these servos, as well as every other Aussie Waze editor has has added servos at one point or another. I've sent off a message to Orit, who is in charge of Waze Localisation, so hopefully the switch will be flicked on soon!

I would define a servo as any business which sells petrol via a petrol pump. Self-serve, full service or unmanned. All are included.

I've also followed up on trying to get an update about activation with some of the Waze staff but nothing to report yet i'm afraid.
