The Response locations card on the Summary tab plots where your responses came from on a world map, alongside a ranked list of regions or cities. This article explains how the map is built and what its list shows.
Where it lives
Open Analytics and stay on the Summary tab. The Response locations card sits below the response timeline. It has two parts side by side: a world map on the left and a location list on the right.
The map
Each response carries the respondent's IP address, which Numio resolves to an approximate latitude and longitude. Those coordinates are plotted as green markers on the world map.
The map automatically frames itself around your markers — if all your responses come from one country, it zooms in on that area; if they're spread worldwide, it zooms out to show the whole globe. You don't pan or set the view manually.
Because locations come from IP geolocation, they're approximate. They reflect the respondent's network location at submission time, which can differ from where the person actually is (for example, when a VPN or corporate network is involved). Treat the map as a directional signal, not a precise address.
The location list
Next to the map is a ranked list of where responses came from, with a count beside each entry:
- When you have responses from four or more regions, the list shows regions (states / provinces / equivalent).
- When responses span fewer than four regions, the list drops down to cities so the breakdown stays useful.
Entries are shown with the location name and how many responses came from it. If there are no located responses yet, the list is empty.
Relationship to the Responses table
The same IP-derived location appears per-row in the Location column of the Responses table, and can be included as a column when you export your data with the metadata option turned on.
