A system and method for identifying tie down restraint locations (314) in a cargo compartment or other storage area is disclosed. The system includes labeling or otherwise highlighting the tie down locations (314) on a floor (302) where the cargo (308) is to be secured. The labeling is based on a reference coordinate system that is associated with a tie down plan. Additionally or alternatively, a tie down locator device (300) is mounted above the floor (302) that highlights or otherwise illuminates a tie down location (314). As a cargo handler completes a connection, the device highlights the next tie down location.
