You have to be within a certain radius of a NFZ for it to show up on the map in the app. (10 miles or so)
The GEO webpage will tell you the NFZ's that are restricted and the ones that can be authorized to fly in.
BUT, They are still working on the GEO and you currently cannot fly in authorization zones.
It should be up and running soon.

You don't.
If you're travelling to different towns during the day and find a cool area that you want to get some footage but it happens to be a NFZ you cannot do it.
BUT, pre-plan at home. Look on the GEO page along your route and you can choose up to 30 NFZ's. Just unlock everything along your route.
