Your polygons define the areas in which you want to exchange data with Waze. They're used in each of your Waze for Cities data sharing tools and integrations.
Add a new polygon
You can add a new polygon in one of two ways:
Draw the polygon on the map
- Log in to the Partner Hub
- Click Settings
- Click Areas of operation
- Click + New polygon
- Click the pencil icon
- Add a name to your polygon
- Click Save
- Click the map
Note: If your organization's address doesn't already appear on the map, enter it in the search bar. - Click a spot on the map to create your first dot
- Click the area next to it to form a new dot, and draw a segment between them. Repeat this step until you’ve drawn a polygon shape around the perimeter of your area of operation.
Note: The polygon must have 1000 or fewer dots that are within your area of operation or jurisdiction. Large polygons covering areas beyond your jurisdiction may be rejected.
- Double click to complete the polygon
Tip: Enlarge a polygon by dragging the dots at the ends of each segment. - Click Save polygon
Insert the polygon coordinates
- Log in to the Partner Hub
- Click Settings
- Click Areas of operation
- Click + New polygon
- Click Insert coordinates
- Insert the polygon coordinates in the text box
- Click Save. You'll see the polygon added to the map.
- Click Save polygon
To track the status of your polygon requests, under "Areas of operation", check the "Status" field.
Manage your polygons
- Log in to the Partner Hub
- Click Settings
- Click Areas of operation. Approved polygons appear in a list.

Note:
- If you edit a polygon in any way, it will be resent to Waze for approval. Once approved, you can access the new areas of operation from all your Waze tools.
- You must have at least one polygon associated with your organization at a time. If you only have one polygon, you will not be able to delete it.
