Mega MapRaid "Van" Turkey
- Start: October 15th (Sunday) 10:00 UTC
- End: October 23rd (Monday) 22:00 UTC
Date and Times are approximate.
Goals
In order of importance:
- Create New Roads [Primary Goal]
- Improve Basemap: Add Missing Roads [Secondary Goal]
- Improve Major Connectivity [Routing and Navigation]
- Update Pending “Places”.
- Solve User Reports and Map Problems.
Hosts
Communication
We will use these two methods to communicate:
- Waze's official but limited Chat within WME and
- Waze Global Discord Server. Editors are already added in groups in the Waze Global Server for even better communication.
- Primary communication language is English as we have editors from 43 different counties. please ask for help if you need help with translation.
- When working in the raid area, please set yourself visible in WME chat. and turn on the Live Users layer.
Raid Areas
There are 10 groups. The participants are listed in the forum. Read more about Van on the website of the municipality.
We kindly urge you to stay within the raid area of Van. Use the overlay as it clearly shows the border. Mind you that the overlay is not very detailed at the border, so it is not a source for city names in that area.
MapRaid guidelines
Improve major connectivity
We need to check the routes that connect the neighborhoods. Many times, highways are interrupted by lower level streets, and Waze cannot calculate a long distance route. Like the example in the picture: because the roundabout is of road type Street, Waze will NOT use it in long distance routing. It should be corrected to road type MH. Moreover, this should not be a roundabout, like many roundabouts in Turkey.
You can check routes in the live map. Helpful is the information on road categories in the Turkish wiki page. The government provides an overview of the major roads for Van, Click on the picture for a larger image.
Correcting base map
In many places, the base map import needs to be corrected. You can read more about it in the paragraph on the Turkish wiki page.
Add missing roads
A topic that speaks for itself. Please read the simple quick-start guide for a guideline on adding new roads. More information can be found on the Turkish wiki page.
Solve URs and MPs
We have prepared some default responses for handling URs. A guideline for Turkey can be found on the Turkish wiki page. In case you use the URComments script, we can provide you with an extra set of Turkish-English comments pasted in the International List.
Correcting road names
Van has 11 districts. As the address administration changed in 2014, many roads are wrongly named. We are currently in contact with the municipality for the use of a GIS source. At least we need the districts added to the road name to be able to have unique addresses. This will be done in the city field as described on the Turkish wiki page. When you edit road names, make sure to also use the correct abbreviations.
Unfortunately, we cannot use the overlay to define the borders of the districts. Click on the picture above to see a larger version from the source. We need to write a warning too, because road naming is very complex in Turkey: Do not copy, do not delete existing road names. Only update road names unless you have verified them and are absolutely sure! We are currently writing a helpfile for this.
Speed Limits and other edits
All Speed Limits in Turkey are in km/h (kph). Only add speed limits when there are recent street view images in WME to verify the speed limit. The table only shows the default Speed Limit Rules, please extensively use the street view images to verify the speed limits.
Road Type | default speed in km/h (kph) |
---|---|
Freeway | 120 |
Rural road, double lane | 110 |
Rural road, single two-way lane | 90 |
Urban road | 50 |

Adding Speed Limits is NOT a goal of this mapraid. You may update them, along with other problems you find, but please keep the focus on the goals of this mapraid as shown above. For any other problem that need attention, you may report it via this form .
For all edits, please read the Turkish wiki page for the specific guidance editing in Turkey!

Mass edits and quality
In Base Map areas, mass edits are allowed, as long as they are constructive to the map. Be aware that we will monitor edits, so avoid unnecessary edits and hunting for points. Quality counts, not quantity. Sanctions are strict, being banned from this and future mapraids. In addition, Waze throttles your edits and points when scripts are used excessively, meaning that you don't earn points for mass editing.
If you are using a tool or script, you are fully responsible for its use and its consequences. Please make sure that you understand the features of the script you are using. You will be held accountable for any side effects.
- If you are unsure about something, please ask.
- Check and triple check.
- We have great leaders here who can help you.
- Let's make sure we do it right the first time, and set a great example for the rest of the world.
