Read the results

Read network information and approximate location together with any uncertainty or limitations. The reported location may represent network infrastructure rather than a device or user. Compare conflicting observations and retain the collection context before using the result in a timeline. A country, region, or city estimate does not establish where a person was physically located or who controlled the address.
