Designating the Behavior of Geofences

1. Under Customization, select one of these Behavior options: 

  • Off:  Geofences are not active. They do not affect the Detailed Route Report and are not visible on the map. 


  • Warning Only:  Geofences are visible on the map, and a warning will appear in the Detailed Route Report at the points where the route begins to travel on a road segment that is part of a geofenced area. The warning will include the road name, geofence set name, and geofence name, for example: Warning * US 69 *: Montana Geofences: ButteMT


  • Avoid + Warning:  Geofences are visible on the map. The route will avoid road segments within the geofenced area if the Use Avoid/Favors is selected in Routing Preferences of Route Options or the current route profile. A warning will appear in the Detailed Route Report in cases where the route has to enter the geofence (for example, if the destination is within the geofenced area).
