Welcome to Android Central! Tough break.:'( You won't be able to locate the device after it gets wiped. But for what it's worth, the thief won't be able to use the phone after a factory reset, because Google Factory Reset Protection will require your Google username and password to be entered after the reset in order to proceed with the Setup Wizard.
