===== State specific special road guidelines =====
The following special roads are managed slightly uniquely in some states and territories.


When assigning the city name to a road segment or landmark, use the name of the incorporated place or CDP (census-designated place) from the listing below. If it is outside the boundaries of either of those, set the city name as None (with the checkbox). Do not use the names associated with ZIP codes or the name of a neighborhood, community, or subdivision not included below. If the road type is Freeway, set the city as None, regardless of the location, as this helps with routing. Be sure to also set the city name of any alternate names correctly. Please discuss any deviations from this guidance in the [https://www.waze.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=582 West Virginia Forum].
======Parking Lot Roads======
{{RootPage2}} uses the following national standard guidelines found in the Wiki for [[Road_types/USA#Parking_Lot_Road|Parking Lot Roads]].


(County names when hyperlinked are linked to the County GIS where available. City/Town names are hyperlinked to the WME Permalink.)
======Alleys======
{{RootPage2}} uses the following guidelines for mapping alleys.


;Barbour
*Alleys should always be mapped if they have a name.
:[https://www.waze.com/editor/?env=usa&lon=-80.03712&lat=39.14352&zoom=1 Philippi], Belington, Junior, Century, Galloway
*Alleys should always be mapped if they are the sole access to a home or business.
*Alleys should always be set to "Private"
*Alleys are normally mapped if they are acknowledged by the municipality.


;[http://berkeley.wvassessor.com/publicmapstart.html Berkeley]
If an alley does not meet the above criteria, mapping is optional. Leave the name field blank.

;Boone
Be careful adding alleys which will be closer to the destination pins for house numbers, or from Google, as this can cause all navigation to all the addresses on that block to route onto the alley instead. It may be better not to map these alleys, or you may have to adjust all the address pins to be closer to the actual roads.

Generally, if a path can't be driven on (e.g. Walking Trail, Pedestrian Boardwalk, Stairway, Runway/Taxiway) then it not normally mapped, unless approved by a Virginia State Manager or the Mid-Atlantic Regional Coordinator. If it is mapped, it should not be connected to any roads, its elevation should be set to 9 and it should be locked at Level 5.  This is due to the way the routing engine works, as Waze '''will''' route users to drive on these "Non-Drivable" road types.

The "Railroad" road type serves two purposes in Waze. First, it provides drivers with visual orientation relative to railroad and light-rail tracks. More importantly, in the common case where passenger-carrying tracks lie parallel with roads, mapping the tracks allows Waze to recognize spurious speed data from people Wazing on the train and prevent it from corrupting speed data for the adjacent road. Please see USA Road Types wiki page for more information on mapping [[Road_types/USA#Railroad|railroads]].

State specific special road guidelines

The following special roads are managed slightly uniquely in some states and territories.

Parking Lot Roads

PesachZ uses the following national standard guidelines found in the Wiki for Parking Lot Roads.

Alleys

PesachZ uses the following guidelines for mapping alleys.

  • Alleys should always be mapped if they have a name.
  • Alleys should always be mapped if they are the sole access to a home or business.
  • Alleys should always be set to "Private"
  • Alleys are normally mapped if they are acknowledged by the municipality.

If an alley does not meet the above criteria, mapping is optional. Leave the name field blank.

Be careful adding alleys which will be closer to the destination pins for house numbers, or from Google, as this can cause all navigation to all the addresses on that block to route onto the alley instead. It may be better not to map these alleys, or you may have to adjust all the address pins to be closer to the actual roads.

Off-road / Not Maintained Road

Virginia uses the following national standard guidelines found in the Wiki for Off-road / Not Maintained Road. These were formerly called Dirt Roads (until Nov 2016).

Non-drivable roads

Generally, if a path can't be driven on (e.g. Walking Trail, Pedestrian Boardwalk, Stairway, Runway/Taxiway) then it not normally mapped, unless approved by a Virginia State Manager or the Mid-Atlantic Regional Coordinator. If it is mapped, it should not be connected to any roads, its elevation should be set to 9 and it should be locked at Level 5. This is due to the way the routing engine works, as Waze will route users to drive on these "Non-Drivable" road types.

The "Railroad" road type serves two purposes in Waze. First, it provides drivers with visual orientation relative to railroad and light-rail tracks. More importantly, in the common case where passenger-carrying tracks lie parallel with roads, mapping the tracks allows Waze to recognize spurious speed data from people Wazing on the train and prevent it from corrupting speed data for the adjacent road. Please see USA Road Types wiki page for more information on mapping railroads.
