I also reached out to the waze ccp forum:

Hello waze,

We seem to have a ghost road closure record stuck in the waze map.

That closure segment has been deleted from our on-premise geodatabase feature class that is setup as a live feed to waze with our on premise Esri ArcGIS Server & waze ccp.

Other road closures have been added and deleted fine but this one is stuck in waze's map.

I tried to edit it using the waze map editor too but it has error about driving area.

We already entered a large polygon of our city limits when we signed up with their connected citizens program.

1 SEGMENT SELECTED

You cannot edit this segment. You may only edit segments in your driving area.

Are the City's GIS editors expected to drive every road segment before waze allows the City to edit them?

We determine most road closures in the Engineering Department so why would we be required to drive down every street when we already have them in our GIS?

The view history tab shows a different waze editor made multiple changes to that same road segment on-line.

I direct messaged that account but have not heard back yet.

The same ghost road closure shows up on Esri's waze live alerts map service too.

That popup lists it as a WEATHERHAZARD which is wrong.

Bill,

I work on the Esri Transportation Team and have a fair amount of experience working with Waze and our GeoEvent Server technology. I want to point out that the pop up is only reflecting what the data from Waze reports. Here is the data schema for Waze https://developers.google.com/waze/data-feed/incident-information#incident-elements.

How are you getting your data from Waze. The Esri Marketplace or through GeoEvent Server?

Do the road closures that have clearly expired show up in the Waze commercial routing app? Also does the closure show up in the Browser base app maintained by Waze. If you can make these details a little clearer to me I’ll reach out to my colleague who manages the relationship we have with Waze to look into this.

Hello Eric,

I found a ccp forum item with similar issue:

"sometimes it happens. Usually we can remove that with the reporting tool,

Waze.com/reporting

After login you can find that report, click on it and on the bottom right, there is the trash can.

I hope it solves,"

That fixed the ghost record for our Gettysburg Ave closure.

Still looking into the incident type issue.

Incident Type

Description

The Connected Citizens Program (CCP) is proof that we already have the answers to some of today’s mobility challenges. The Waze map strengthens with every data point contributed across our vast community of everyday drivers and volunteer map editors. Via the CCP, hundreds of international cities, departments of transportation and first responders have built meaningful relationships and regularly knowledge share to identify creative solutions. From road management to measurable congestion reduction, these are the initiatives building cities of tomorrow.

By signing up for CCP, you will get access to the Waze Live Alerts Layer which contains up to date information as reported by more than 100 Million monthly active users, who report issues in the Waze application and into your maps.

Hi Bill,

The information that feeds into the Waze Live Alerts Layer comes directly from Waze. I would encourage you to continue reaching to them via the Connected Citizens Program for additional details or to ask them to change it.

In the mean time, the Incident Sub Type should provide the information you need. If you are using GeoEvent to bring in the data direct from Waze to your local environment, you can change attributes on the fly as it comes in or add an additional field that is calculated based on the Sub Type.

I hope that helps and please repost if you receive a response from Waze as to why they assign this Type to all of the construction events.

Cheers,

Andrew

Currently not using geoevent.

Can esri not include that incident type in the pop-up?

Anonymous User

Hey Bill,

You can modify the pop up in your web map and hide the Type field. Looking again at your earlier posts, the data available in the ArcGIS Marketplace is a mirror of what's in the Waze Live Map. So if they match, that makes sense and the problem needs corrected on the Waze side.

As you may already know, the Waze Map Editors are also a great community to work with on this as well, and you can find a few located in California here. https://wazeopedia.waze.com/wiki/USA/California#Area_Managers

Hope that helps in the interim.
