Creates a location.

A location is a property, building, business, or other asset that may be damaged by catastrophe events. When location coverage is applied to a location, that location is known as a location exposure.

A location is generally tied to a specific account, which identifies the cedants, underwriters, and policies that are applicable to that location. In general, a policy applies to every location belonging to an account. The Risk Modeler API provides numerous operations for defining details (e.g. policy conditions, reinsurance cessions) that mitigate coverage for a particular location.

Every location is defined by a set of location attributes (for example, property, address, postalCode) and optional building attributes, location conditions, reinsurance cessions, perils (earthquakes, floods, fires, etc.), and other attributes.
