Chip planner vs physical position on FPGA

Hello,

So after compiling, we have an image of the circuit placement and routing on chip planner, like the image belowhttps://alteraforum.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=14796&stc=1 .

My question is that is there any way to map this with the real locations on the physical FPGA. In other words, how do I know where in the chip planner image maps to where in the real FPGA https://alteraforum.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=14797&stc=1 .

Thank you.

    The Chip Planner matches the device. You have to check if it's a flip chip package to make sure the orientation is correct, but the picture is pretty accurate. But why do you need to know this?
