Area or Point ?
The table of Place categories and types, provides guidelines to help map editors decide between point and area places.
♦♦♦ IMPORTANT ♦♦♦
Keep in mind area places smaller than 500 m² (5382 ft2) will not show in the Waze App. This is particularly true regarding gas stations. Be careful when editing area places and verify the size of area places by selecting the area and looking at the very bottom of the left panel in WME. If the area is smaller than required you will see the actual area size and a warning message:
Gas Stations

Locking Standard
| PLACE TYPE | LOCK LEVEL |
|---|---|
| Military Installation / Airport | 4 |
| Hospitals / Urgent Care 24hrs | 4 |
| Police & Fire Dept | 4 |
| Schools / Universities / Colleges | 4 |
| National & State Parks and Monuments | 4 |
| Gas Stations | 3 |
| Government Buildings / Consulates | 3 |
| City and Local Parks | 2 |
- All Places that have complete information (to include, at a minimum, address/city, hours of operation, phone number) are to be locked at Level 2. This is to prevent loss of data due to automatic acceptance of Place Update submissions from Trusted Users, or Place Update Request approvals from other editors without careful examination.
- If you do not have a high enough enough rank to lock the place as indicated, please lock it as high as you can, and notify a higher rank AM, SM, CM, or Champ to lock it higher.
Phone Numbers Format
Puerto Rico area codes are 787 and 939. Please use the following format when adding phone numbers to places information:
- (787) XXX-XXXX or (939) XXX-XXXX
