# Update Camera Time Zone

The camera’s [map](/verkada-cameras/configuration/view-and-edit-camera-settings/change-the-location-of-a-camera.md) location is used to determine the camera’s time zone. If a camera has incorrect time zone settings, ensure it is placed correctly on the map. The time zone is based on the **location** you set for the camera.
