==KISS As simple as possible, as complex as necessary== | |||
KISS is keeping the road geometry as simple as possible, without losing the essential driving instructions.<br /> | |||
<br /> | |||
There is one important thing to always keep in mind when you edit the map: Waze is not a topographic map, but a navigation system! Over the years, the community discovered ways to edit the map in a way that maximizes navigation. Waze relies on a map’s display suitable for a small smart-phone screen. It needs a map that accurately instructs where cars can drive, is simple and clear, and uses real time traffic data bound to the parts on the map. Therefore, we follow the three basic principles "Usability, Simplicity, & Retention"; Make it useful, keep it as simple as possible.

What is this KISS all about? Summarized: "As simple as possible, as complex as necessary". In short statementsː
- Simplify the map and segments as far as possible
- Make situations only as complex as needed
- Use segments only for routing, not for something like lane assistance.
- Segments doesn't have to have the exact metres of paved road.
