I think that the term 'brain locating' is not fully appropiate or somehow confuse. What do you mean with locating? Is it related with sense of localization/perception? oneself point of view (egocentric) or in respect with others (allocentric)?
I mean that functional neuroimaging is useful to make assotiations between determined processes (modeled through experimental tasks) and brain regions, but you need to specify which function are you relating. If you are interested in vision, literature is wide (i.e., Goodale and Milner 1992: Separate visual pathways for perception and action; Goodale 1996: Visuomotor modules in the vertebrate brain; Goodale, 1998: The objects of action and perception). Then, you have different aspects of vision (i.e. spatial/temporal perception, direction, speed, color,...). When an object is viewed, info carries from the retina (first synapse) to the visual cortex, located in the occipital region of the brain. In this way, these studies have demonstrated that when an object is viewed, different visual pathways carry distinct functions: a dorsal pathway (parietal cortex)= how? whereas a ventral pathway (temporal cortex)= what?.
EEG is useful for determining the brain function; has better temporal but worse spatial resolution that fMRI and does not has access to subcortical brain regions (i.e., the cerebellum or basal ganglia).
