# Locations

Locations are a sub-hierarchy within the 'Organizations' structure in the DTM app. They provide a means to manage and organize your DTM devices more efficiently.

Each Location represents a physical location in the real world. All data collected by the devices installed in that location is compiled and stored in connection with the location, so no matter if you remove or change devices, the historical data will always be associated with the location.

Multiple DTM devices can be associated with a Location, depending on your specific requirements.

For example, if your Organization is a retail store chain, a Location could be a specific store within that chain. If your Organization is a university campus, a Location could be a particular building on that campus.
