Welcome to Waze Laos!
We would love to have your help. Read along and join the Waze Laos editing community.
What is Waze?
Waze is a free GPS navigation application for mobile telephone or tablet. Waze has speech support, free map updates and uses real time traffic information and actual reports from its users. Users like you! With Waze you can share your driver experience, connect with friends, send your ETA to show when you will be home, or just avoid traffic jams. Waze is crowd-sourced, meaning it is maintained by its users.
- Waze has the application, often called client or just app. You can read more about the app on the global wiki pages
- There is a map, that is maintained by users, the Waze Map Editor (WME). Information on editing can be found in the paragraph about Editing.
- Its users form a community, who work together locally as well as internationally.
This page focuses on the community and Map Editing in Laos. For the general basics on editing, there is a Quick-Start Guide provided. With these two pages, everyone should be able to edit constructively in Laos! If you want to know more about a subject, there are many links provided to pages with detailed explanations. Our advice is to open them while you press Ctrl. This opens the linked pages in another tab and keep this basic page open. Anyway, without reading all the extra pages, you should be able to edit basically well too!
Community
The community maintains the Waze map and makes sure it works as best as possible. We make guidelines that are specific of our location, as well as work together internationally. The community of Turkey is not very large yet, and much of the map in Turkey is not maintained well. You can help by sharing your experiences, or even edit the map yourself. How to connect is described in Communication.
The current active community is completely made up of international editors. Please contact one of the editors in the chart below for further information.
