I would like to mark a field where I will be flying.  It is outlined with trees and I would like to ensure that I don't fly into the trees.  The area is irregular, so I can't just use the maximum flight distance.  The best would be able to geofence the area, but lacking that, what is the best way to do it?

I am going out to the field today and see if I can have it draw the area out like it would if it was flying.  I don't think I can do that unless the Phantom 3P is actually in the air.  I am open to suggestions.

Well, I went out to see if I could draw a border with the Phantom on in my car.  I don't see a way to do it.  I could do a follow me around the border, but that could take more than one battery to accomplish, and although I could use the exercise, I would like to see another approach.

There is no function in the DJI software to do this.
