 ** Geometry **   <a name="location-Type-IsolineAvoidanceArea-Geometry"></a>
The primary area to avoid, specified using a bounding box, corridor, polygon, or polyline corridor.  
Type: [IsolineAvoidanceAreaGeometry](API_IsolineAvoidanceAreaGeometry.md) object  
Required: Yes

 ** Except **   <a name="location-Type-IsolineAvoidanceArea-Except"></a>
Areas within the primary avoidance geometry where travel is allowed. For example, you might want to avoid a neighborhood but allow travel on a major road that passes through it.  
Type: Array of [IsolineAvoidanceAreaGeometry](API_IsolineAvoidanceAreaGeometry.md) objects  
Required: No
