You get map edits for activities in the Waze Map Editor and the Waze forum. Once you complete a certain number of edits, you may be able to move to a new Map Editor Level.
You can view your total number of map edits in the Waze Map Editor.
- Log in to the Waze Map Editor
- Click, or your photo if you added one to your account, at the top right of the screen
- In the menu that opens, next to your username, click level. A new window opens.
You'll see your map edits total under "Edits".
Check out the local community's Wazeopedia for a complete list of map edits per activity.
Got questions?
Why did I get less map edits than I should have?
There are a few reasons why this might have happened:
- A large number of updates were made before you clicked Save. You can only earn a maximum of 150 map edits per Save.
- You updated multiple properties in a single segment before you clicked Save. Map edits are granted per updated segment, node, or object, regardless of how many properties within the segment you updated.
- You updated the same segment multiple times within 24 hours. In this case, you’ll only receive map edits for updating one segment.
Why don't I see my edits on the map right away?
It's also possible that because of your map editor level, you weren't able edit the map, and instead you suggested an edit . When you suggest an edit, an experienced editor has to review and approve your suggestion before it's added to the map.
