Locations of

The following table shows the locations of and information found in error logs for the CDE.
[ It is impossible to write down the entire table here.]

I read the above in a website about some data configuration.

Is it proper to say 'locations of' ?

If there are more than one location, you could say locations. No doubt about it.

Although, I'm not a native speaker I cannot understand what the prepostion 'of' means in the sentence you wrote. If I was the author of that sentence I would leave it out. Where did you find this table?

Could you tell me the locations of all the major airports in Europe?

Thanks for the replies.
ReDSanchous, I cant give you the name of the site as it is password protected. On top of that, my superiors have paid some money to get the access to me. They know the number of users. I think the amount of money they depends on number of users.
