WordPress - Only Display Posts That Are Associated To Logged In User

In my WordPress Site, I have custom post types setup for Tanks, Locations, and Users using the PODS plugin. Currently I have some PHP that allows me to only show the logged in user a post, if they are listed as the author of it. Which is a good start, but not exactly how I need it to work. Because of the way WordPress stores their Author field, I am only able to have one User associated per Tank/Location instead of many. My question is, how would I go about making it so that WordPress will check to see what Tanks/Locations the current logged in user has associated to them, and only display those? In both the Tanks and Locations PODS, I have already setup a relationship field to my Users POD which allows me to assign each Tank/Location with as many users as necessary. All I need now is to figure out how display that information. If it makes any difference, the storage type for all my PODS is Table Based.

So in case anyone has the same question I did, here is how I ended up solving my issue. The variable 'users.ID' is referring to the relationship field I had in each of my Locations/Tanks.

if(!current_user_can('administrator')){
add_shortcode( 'pods_by_current_user_cpt', 'pods_by_current_user_cpt' );

    function pods_by_current_user_cpt( $atts, $content = null ) {
        $current_user  = wp_get_current_user();
        $user_id       = $current_user->ID;
        $atts['where'] = 'users.ID = ' . (int) $user_id;
        return pods_shortcode( $atts, $content );
    }
}
else{
    add_shortcode( 'pods_by_current_user_cpt', 'pods_by_current_user_cpt' );

    function pods_by_current_user_cpt( $atts, $content = null ) {
        $current_user  = wp_get_current_user();
        $user_id       = $current_user->ID;
        return pods_shortcode( $atts, $content );
    }
}
