This wiki page is in draft and is not to be utilised for mapping purposes. |
Waze EV Project
Watch the Waze Communities Office Hours where they discuss the EV rollout project.
Mapping Instructions
Please see the following deck on how electric vehicle charging stations (EVCS) should be mapped using the Waze Map Editor.
Some critical points to remember:
- Do not just approve and move on. Ensure all of the fields under the General and More info tab are completed, and that the mapping standards as listed on this wiki page are applied to every EVCS place.
- EVCS PURs should only be rejected if they do not physically exist or are permanently closed. Otherwise, approve and edit the incorrect details.
- Update the Google Sheet once added. To help us track the roll out of EVCS in Australia, update the Google Sheet to indicate it was added and if there were any errors outstanding.
Reporting Incorrect Chargers
As described in the above slides, plugs cannot be edited on EVCS imported with an external provider. Errors need to be reported using the Google Sheet so the external provider can fix their data and push changes to Waze.
Missing Network Operators
Is there a new network? Contact an Australian Local Champ and they can arrange for a new network to be added.
EVSC Mapping Standards
Australia adopts the electric vehicle charging station (EVCS) policy of the USA, with the exception of local requirements and resources mentioned on this page. If the answer you are looking for is not mentioned here, please see the aforementioned link.
Naming
Networked charging stations
Refer to the USA wiki page for full details. Below are some localised examples of naming networked Australian EV charging stations.
| Network | Location Name (from provider) | Waze Place Primary Name |
|---|---|---|
| Electrify America | Walmart 402 Breaux Bridge | Electrify America - Walmart 402 |
| Electrify America | Gulfport Premium Outlets | Electrify America - Gulfport Premium Outlets |
| Tesla Supercharger | Metairie, LA | Tesla Supercharger - Metairie, LA |
| Tesla Supercharger | Las Vegas, NV - Bridger Avenue | Tesla Supercharger - Bridger Avenue |
| Tesla Destination Charger | Arlington Resort Hotel & Spa | Tesla Destination Charger - Arlington Resort Hotel & Spa |
| Francis Energy | Boston Avenue United Methodist Church | Francis Energy - Boston Avenue United Methodist Church |
| ChargePoint | ENTERGY NO LVL2 / LAFITTEGREENWAY | ChargePoint - Lafitte Greenway |
| ChargePoint | ENTERGY NO LVL2 / ROSENWALD REC | ChargePoint - Rosenwald Recreation Center |
Add "EV Charging Station" as an alternate name to all EV charging stations.
Non-networked charging stations
Refer to the USA wiki page for full details. Below are some localised examples of naming non-networked Australian EV charging stations.
- Charging Station - Freedom Toyota
- Charging Station - Hyde Park
- Charging Station - Westfield Parking
- Charging Station - Woolworths
- Charging Station - 375 Pacific Hwy
Add "EV Charging Station" as an alternate name to all EV charging stations.
Details
Payment methods
Add all payment methods which are accepted at the charging station.
The charging networks listed below support the following payment methods:
- Blink: App, Membership card, Plug-in autocharge, Other[1][2]
- ChargePoint: App, Credit card (note: contactless only) Membership card[3]
- Electrify America: App, Credit card, Debit card, Membership card[4], Plug-in autocharge[5]
- EVgo: App, Credit card, Debit card, Plug-in autocharge[6]
- SemaConnect: App, Membership card, Other[1]
- Tesla Supercharger: Plug-in autocharge
Chargers
The Chargers tab shows the chargers and plugs available at the charging station.
The Chargers tab will be read-only on charging stations linked to an external provider. If you find an error in the Chargers tab, mark it in the spreadsheet (if applicable), or reach out to your (A)RC so they can address it with staff or the external provider.
Plugs
Below are the common plugs used in Australia:
- CCS2 - European counterpart to CCS1 which combines DC fast charging lower pins with the Type 2 plug instead of the J1772 plug.
- CHAdeMO - a DC fast charging plug.
- J1772 - Also known as "Type 1".
- Type 2 (Mennekes) - The European standard for AC charging (similar to our J1772 standard, but with a different plug).
More info
Charging network station locators
National
- ChargePoint - Station Map
- Electrify America - Locate a Charger
- EVgo - Find a Charger
- Tesla - Find Us
Regional
- Francis Energy - Stations Near You (Oklahoma)
Other resources
- DOE charging station locations
- Maryland charging station locations
- Vermont charging station locations
- PlugShare is a pseudo-first party resource where business owners and other charging station operators control their own charger listings. PlugShare can be used as a resource to verify factual information such as access type, charger location, activation instructions, hours of operation, and so on. If you're not seeing a particular station on PlugShare, check your filters (plugs, location filters, minimum power, networks, etc.).
