Místa Zobrazit historii

Místa jsou ve Waze synonymem pro systém tzv. Point of Interest (POI) - míst na mapě, která mohou být vyhledávána za nějakým dalším účelem. Místa se dělí na dva typy POI: typ Bod a typ Plocha.

Místo typu Bod vytváří POI vyhledávatelný z klientské aplikace, který se nicméně v samotné aplikaci nezobrazuje. Místo typu Bod může být použito pro mnoho kategorií lokace - viz tabulka níže, nicméně obzvláště užitečné je zejména v situacích, kdy ostatní POI systémy, v nichž Waze umí vyhledávat, toto místo neznají.

Místo typu Plocha (dříve označované jako Landmark) má všechny vlastnosti shodné s místem typu Bod a navíc přidává dodatečnou vizualizaci daného místa na displeji navigace. Díky své viditelnosti může snadno nastat situace, že tento typ míst začne být užíván příliš často. Základní pravidlo zní: pokud dané místo není významově natolik zásadní, že by poskytovalo dodatečnou orientaci řidičům, pak by nemělo být zachyceno jako místo typu "Plocha". Toto základní pravido platí také níže v článku, kde se nachází tabulka kategorií a typů míst.

Výjimku tvoří čerpací stanice, u nichž je zapotřebí zvláštního zacházení.


Bod

Místo typu Bod je vykreslováno v editoru následujícími ikonkami:

Standardní označení Bodu je růžovofialové

Aktuálně označený Bod změní barvu na modrou

Všechy Body, které byly editovány a dosud neuloženy dostanou oranžovo-růžovou barvu, stejně jako např. segmenty.

Detailní umístění

  • Místo "Bod" by mělo být v editoru umístěno na (nebo co nejblíže) segmentu, kam má být řidič navigován. Hrot značky Bodu ukazuje na místo, kam má ideálně řidič dojet.

Area

The Area type of Place is rendered as a polygon. Just like a segment, you can adjust the shape by using the geometry handles. All Area Places in the editor show in pink when not selected and blue-green when selected:

Location Details

  • The Area type has a target which is the navigation stop point.
  • The target stop point can be moved anywhere within the shape and also a short distance outside the actual Area shape
  • The stop point target should be placed on or nearest to the segment to which the driver should be navigated.

Extent

Some locations that qualify for an Area Place may involve one or more structures as well as open space, roads, and parking. In such cases, particularly if these components form a unified complex or campus with an overall identity, the boundaries of the Area Place should encompass the entire property (i.e., "mapped to the fence line"). This ensures that clients render and label the Area Place with the correct significance when viewed with reduced zoom.

Other qualifying Area Places whose property lines are substantially identical with a single destination structure may be drawn, if desired, to approximate the structure's outline or footprint.

The Gas Station and Parking Lot categories of Area Place suppress automated detection of Map Problems and should always be mapped at least to the extent of the drivable area (see Places/Parking lot for more detail on the Parking-Lot Area Place).

Overlap

In some cases an extensive Area Place may contain within it locations that would themselves qualify as Area Places; for example, different medical buildings within a hospital campus or separate malls within a large shopping complex. As of this writing, however, the Waze client renders only the names of subset Area Places and does not show visible boundaries for them. Users therefore cannot visually distinguish Area Places subset within other Area Places.  The subset Area-Place text labels appear, but they "float" amidst an undifferentiated colored background.

Future versions of the Waze client may render overlapping Area Places more usefully. In anticipation of this, qualifying Area Places may be drawn subset within others.  It may be a better approach for the time being to use Point Places for the components of a larger Area Place, unless it is essential that the subset Place names be visible in the current version of the Waze client. If overlapping Area Places do render more usefully in the future, qualifying Point Places may be converted to Area Places at that time.

Client Rendering

Šablona:As of, Point Places are not rendered in the Live map, or Client Devices, but are searchable within the app.

Setting the stop point for a Place

Point placement

The Point Place is to be placed on or nearest to the segment to which the driver should be navigated. Here is an example of a gas station Point located directly on a parking lot segment.

Area placement

Here is an example of an Area (a large park in this case) which has an entry road on the east side. The second image is zoomed in on the target to show how this type of Area should have its navigation stop point set.

Area+Point Combinations

There are some situations where it will be appropriate to mix both Area and Point Places. For example, shopping centers and shopping malls where the mall itself could be considered a navigation destination, but there are also individual stores which are also valid for being marked.

A simple shopping center, when mapped in this manner, would look like this:


Multiple categories

  • A Place can be assigned to multiple categories
  • The Primary Category for a Place must be the first one you enter
  • The Primary Category is displayed in a darker shade of blue than the others
  • The Primary Category is used to determine whether to use a Point or Area for the Place


Place address detail

Every Place, whether Point or Area, should have as much detail completed as possible. This includes a name, proper categorization, and full street address, city and state. If any Place doesn't have a City or Street, you will need to check the None checkbox.

Here is an example of a Gas Station Area with its details completed:

Additional fields to allow entry of more detail will be coming in future editor releases. (One field available in previous editor releases but not available at this time, is phone number.)

When to use Area or Point

Here is the global guidance on selecting Area or Point for Places in the Waze Map Editor.

Parking Lot

The Parking Lot Place marks a well-defined area constructed for off-street public parking, including parking structures and garages as well as at-grade lots. There are many elements that must be considered before deciding to map a parking lot. The details are covered in Places/Parking lot.
