Google had in December said that it will merge Waze and Google Maps teams to consolidate processes, making it a part of the Google Geo division, its portfolio of real-world mapping products that include Google Maps, Google Earth, and Street View.

Chris Phillips, who leads the Geo division, said Google will notify advertisers and partners about the move on Wednesday.
