The Waze community has created the following plugins/extensions/addons for use in the Waze web-based environments. See browser requirement and instructions.

WME Colour Highlights for Landmarks and Segments (WMECH)

by Timbones

This script adds color highlighting to segments and landmarks according to their status and type. The highlighting of segments is likely to be most useful, for it shows locked and nameless roads.

WME Level Highlighter

by Kuhlkatz

WME Script allowing Segment highlighting based on segment levels. Please note that this conflicts with Tim's WME Colour Highlights and that both should NOT be active at the same time.

WME Junction Angle info

by milkboy

Waze Map Editor (WME) addon to help with junction design. If two connected segments are selected, it shows the turn angle, otherwise it shows the the angle between each segment.

UR Overview Plus (URO+)

by Twister-UK

URO provides various filtering options to show/hide update request, map problem and camera markers according to type, age, comment keyword etc. For any markers that remain visible, hovering the mouse pointer over the marker then generates a pop-up which contains a summary of the marker information and some marker-type specific actions (e.g. opening an update request in a new tab, deleting a camera). For any UR markers where a conversation is taking place (currently WME beta only), the marker is modified to show a small quote icon in place of the Waze icon.

As of v3.0, URO+ also includes the functionality from the DrivesTabEnhancer (DTE) and Select Roundabout Segments (SRS) scripts

Drives Tab Enhancer (DTE)

by Twister-UK

This script modifies the Drives tab in the left-hand panel to show more drives per sub-page (up to the WME limit of 50/page), and also to inform the user which of their drives are available to view on the map as a route trail - whilst Waze stores the drive summaries (date, distance etc) for seemingly every drive a user has ever made, it only stores the actual route data for the most recent drives.

As of the v3.0 release of URO+, the functionality of this script is now present within URO+, and I do not intend to continue maintaining this standalone version.

Map Editing

WME Junction Node Fixer (JNF)

by bgodette

Junction Node Fixer has several features. The primary focus of JNF is that it overloads the 'q' (disallowAllTurns) keyboard shortcut to preserve existing turn restrictions. 'Overloading' means that it takes over all functionality of the 'q' hotkey only. The 'q' keyboard shortcut performs the following actions

  • Fixes any self and reverse connectivity issues
  • Fixes closed loop roads (by splitting into two segments with a joining junction)
  • Terminates dead-ends with a junction
  • Makes dead-ends two-way (only if both ends of the segment are visible)
  • Sets the Type of a roundabouts using lowest of two highest rule and sets country/state if needed
  • For UK sets Type of roundabouts using highest type excluding Freeway rule.
  • Does a traditional 'qw' (clears reverse connectivity, and locks turns)
  • Causes the turn arrows to refresh (the side effect of 's' but without the shifting).

Since you end up with the same turns restricted, that means you need to press 'w' if you really want all turns allowed. This is why it overloads 'q' instead of 'w'. Ultimately this will be a separate hotkey that's editable through WME's '?' interface.

JNF also:

  • Saves the state of WME's ShowAllTurns, ShowTurns, and Full-screen mode across Refresh/F5/Permalink.
  • Forces data model reload after successful save.

This has been tested only in Chrome; it has been reported to work in Firefox with GreaseMonkey.

DOWNLOAD WME Junction Node Fixer

Firefox and Chrome: from userscripts.org (requires Greasemonkey or TamperMonkey).

WME Permalink+ (WP+)

by berestovskyy

This script improves permalink in Waze Map Editor:

  • W - permalink to non-beta version of Waze Map Editor with default set of layers, i.e. a permalink to share.
  • L - permalink to Waze Livemap.
  • + - paste a permalink from another window to position your current window to the same location.

For instance, you can paste a non-beta permalink to position your WME beta window.

Roundabout Angles and Landmark

by davipt

Roundabout Angles and Landmark is a script with two features:

  • selecting a roundabout node, on the left side there is a button to automatically create a "junction" landmark around the landmark. Roundabout segments shall not have street name set, but the roundabout name should be added to this landmark in the middle, so the label appears horizontally.
  • selecting a roundabout node, on the left side there is a button to create a temporary landmark in the form of a leaf, which will denote the approximate 90º, 180º and 270º range that Waze uses to switch from the "take the nth exit" to the "straight ahead/turn left/turn right" on roundabouts with two to four connections.

If the created landmark is not round, it means the roundabout has something screwed up, usually a reversed A->B segment, so it also helps ensuring proper roundabouts.

Select Roundabout Segments (SRS)

by Twister-UK

This script adds a "Select roundabout" button to the segment edit panel if you select a single segment from a roundabout. Clicking the button then automatically selects the entire roundabout. Note that if the entire roundabout doesn't get selected, it probably means the roundabout itself is broken.

As of the v3.0 release of URO+, the functionality of this script is now present within URO+, and I do not intend to continue maintaining this standalone version.

Street to River

by aeytom

Street created, selected and named
River created and helper street deleted

The script is designed as a helper for creating river/railroad landmarks for the free waze navigation system. The script transforms the geometry of a new unsaved street to a river or railroad landmark. You can predefine the width and the name for the new landmark in the form of a special street name.

Mini how-to:

  • Install this script as GreaseMonkey or TamperMonkey script or Chrome extension.
  • Draw a new street but do not save the street.
  • Add and apply a street name to define the rivers name and width. This step is optional.
Example: 20m Spree creates a 20 meters wide river named Spree
  • Select the helper street.
  • Click the Street to river or Street to railroad button.
  • Delete the helper street.
  • Edit the new landmark as you like. You can even set the landmark to another type. Here it is used to mark a railroad, using landmark type 'other'.

Examples of rivers created by the script are Spree and Nottekanal.

WME Validator

by berestovskyy

This script validates a map area in Waze Map Editor, highlights issues, and generates a very detailed report with wiki references and how-tos.

  • Validator reports issues for your country and provides links to the country wiki. See How to adjust Validator for your country.
  • Validator highlights issues not features. For example, it highlights not just any locked segment, but only if the lock is an issue.
  • There are many country-specific checks on every segment. See complete list of validations.


Validator is BETA software. Please report any issues/suggestions in the forum thread.

Geocaching

by davipt

Geocaching-Waze bookmarklet is a iOS Safari bookmarklet that allows driving to a given Geocaching coordinate. It assumes a fixed flow within iOS and the official Geocaching client, but it could be adapted to other situations.

Open the iOS Geocaching app, pick up a cache, click on Open on external map, which will open Google Maps on the browser. From this page, click on the bookmarklet which will display the lat+lon; then open Waze on that point, ready to drive there.

LiveMap

LiveMap UR Overlay (LMUR)

by Twister-UK

LMUR allows update requests and map problems to be displayed on the Livemap, with various filtering options to show/hide requests/problems by type, age, keyword etc. Requires Livemap to be viewed via the secure (https) URL - LMUR will prompt you if a non-secure URL is used.

Browser requirements

Chrome

  • Use GreaseMonkey or TamperMonkey.
  • If a download is available from the Chrome Web Store, choose that.
  • Without a *Monkey add-on to manage scripts, simply download the script file or Chrome executable package (CRX). Then drag and drop the file into the Chrome Extensions Tab [chrome://extensions] of the browser.

Firefox

GreaseMonkey or TamperMonkey add-on

The best way to load add-on script is with Greasemonkey or TamperMonkey. When you install a user script, *Monkey catalogs it and automatically runs it when your browser loads any page for which it is declared.
