The only way I know how to know if I am in a NFZ is to turn on the mavic and then it the remote will tell you if you are in a NFZ or the GO app will tell me once connected to the remote.  My question is how can I tell without having to fire up the drone?  It doesn't appear the app can do it based on the phone's location.

I've gone back and forth to China a couple of times and understood where the main Beijing NFZ was.  So heading out to the Great Wall, I got some amazing footage!  However, last time I went, a couple weeks back, the government was having some big meetings so they expanded the NFZ pretty significantly.  I had no idea until I showed up to the Great Wall again and was unable to take off

Anyways, just to repeat the question since I rambled... how do I detect all the NFZs around me without turning the drone on?  Is there a setting in the GO App? or perhaps is there another app?  Thanks for your help.

BTW... Here is that GW footage

You can go this web before you go. No Fly Zone info will be listed there. The Great Wall is really magnificent, very stunning. Thank you for posting!

I have been using UAV Forecast (free version) for awhile, just signed up with a yearly subscription , works fine as an app on my phone, but when I use the PC it gives me a 7 day heads up on  the forecast but the maps are not showing anything but my location, the mobile app shows DJI NFZ's, Airports ect,, anyone know why it doesn't show the same on a PC?
