# Proximity Search

User can search for the nearby records around a required location using Proximity Search. This will help the users to understand the proximity of the nearby records in regards to the selected location. There are two different options to perform a Proximity Search:

1. Proximity by Distance 
2. Proximity by Time.

**Current Location:** User can select any location or a record as the current location. This is used to specify the center point for the Proximity search. By default, this field displays the address stored in the Maplytics personalized record of the logged in user. This is always represented by a green color pushpin on the map and also indicated right next to the current location message box.
