Automated Waze ImportsStatus: CompleteReport Date: 01/15/2025 Summary: Waze offered a traffic data feed to government transportation agencies, which included alerts (citizen alerts of traffic delays, construction, accidents, etc.) and jams (slowdown information created algorithmically by the Waze platform). The Automated Waze Imports task consisted of several components: • Customized and deployed a Waze alerts importer. • Enhanced the alerts importer eligible for the 511 Google delay measurements. • Developed an importer for Waze Jams. The project involved importing all alert types from Waze, determining which events should be documented based on reliability and confidence scores, adding expected delays to 511 events, determining which jams should be eligible for import into 511, and adding directional information to displayed jams.
