For newer versions of eclipse (2018.12, or after Photon, since they got rid of names)), there should be integration with maven out of the box. If that doesn't work, you can install a plugin, following these instructions: http://www.eclipse.org/m2e/
You mostly go to the About -> Install New Software / Eclipse MarketPlace and search for m2e. That basically sets up integration for eclipse to work with the maven generated locations (maven will put everything under the target/ folder).
