Question regarding map GEO source location

Dear Community,

I uploaded the source data in my office, containing geographical information like city and country, then the script automatically generates the information like following:

My question is where is the location of  [lib://__GEO_TABLES/cityGeo.qvd] actually? 

Now whenever get off work, and I wanted to continued my work at home, with source data disconnected, I have to create a backup path for source data. now this GEO_Tables location is a problematically for me. how can I do it effectively? thank you!

 __cityGeoBase:
 LOAD
geoKey AS [__geoKey],
 geoPoint AS [__GeoPoint]

FROM [lib://__GEO_TABLES/cityGeo.qvd]
(qvd);

QVD will be there in lib path which you created while loading file 

 

if you want to specify location you can change location by edit library path

Dear Channa, thanks for reply.
But I couldn't find such qvd file from the path where I loaded the file.
the problem was, after I commented the existed path, and created a backup path for my homework. when I tried to restored it at my office, it indicated " [lib://__GEO_TABLES/cityGeo.qvd] cannot be found".
Now in office I have to loaded the original file again in order to creat such lib path, which is working fine, but the map i had created turned out to be"Could not parse response from location service." I don't know why?
By the way, how to edit the library path for such qvd file which I couldn't see at all? can you show in details? thanks!
