Matrice 30 Series Dock Bundle User Manual
Flight Restrictions and Unlocking
GEO (Geospatial Environment Online) System
The DJI Geospatial Environment Online (GEO) system is a global information system that
provides real-time information on flight safety and restriction updates and prevents
UAVs from flying in restricted airspace. Under exceptional circumstances, restricted areas
can be unlocked to allow flight. Prior to that, the user must submit an unlocking request
based on the current restriction level in the intended flight area. The GEO system may not
fully comply with local laws and regulations. Users shall be responsible for their own flight
safety and must consult with the local authorities on the relevant legal and regulatory
requirements before requesting to unlock a flight in a restricted area.
GEO Zones
DJI’s GEO system designates safe flight locations, provides risk levels and safety notices
for individual flights and offers information on restricted airspace. All restricted flight
areas are referred to as GEO Zones, which are further divided into Restricted Zones,
Authorization Zones, Warning Zones, Enhanced Warning Zones, and Altitude Zones.
GEO Zones include but are not limited to airports, venues of major events, areas where
emergencies have occurred (such as forest fires), nuclear power plants, correctional
facilities, government facilities, and military zones. Users can view real-time GEO
information in DJI FlightHub 2.
By default, the GEO system limits takeoffs and flights in zones that may cause safety or
security concerns. A GEO Zone map that contains comprehensive information on GEO
Zones around the globe is available on the official DJI website:
https://fly-safe.dji.com/nfz/nfz-query.
The settings and alerts provided by DJI on operations within GEO Zones are only to assist
the user in ensuring flight safety and DO NOT guarantee full compliance with all local laws
and regulations. Before each flight task, the user is responsible for seeking advice on the
relevant local laws, regulations, and requirements for the safety of their own aircraft.
Flight Restrictions in GEO Zones
The following section describes in detail the flight restrictions for the above mentioned
GEO Zones.
GEO Zone Flight Restriction Scenario
Restricted
Zones (Red)
UAVs are prohibited from flying
in Restricted Zones. If you have
obtained permission to fly in
a Restricted Zone, please visit
https://fly-safe.dji.com/unlock
or contact [email protected] to
unlock the zone.
The aircraft cannot take off, and a
prompt will appear in DJI FlightHub 2
when the flight route passes through
the Restricted Zones.

Matrice 30 Series Dock Bundle User Manual
Authorization
Zones (Blue)
The aircraft will not be able to
take off in an Authorization
Zone unless it obtains a
permission to fly in the area.
The aircraft cannot take off, and a
prompt will appear in DJI FlightHub 2
when the flight route passes through
the Authorization Zones. To fly in
an Authorization Zone, the user is
required to submit an unlocking
license request and synchronize the
license to the dock in DJI Pilot 2 app.
Warning Zones
(Yellow)
Enhanced
Warning Zones
(Orange)
The aircraft can fly in the zone.
The aircraft can fly in the zone. Please
view GEO information in DJI FlightHub 2
and stay alert.
Altitude Zones
(Gray)
The aircraft’s altitude is limited
when flying inside an Altitude
Zone.
The aircraft cannot take off, and a
prompt will appear in DJI FlightHub 2
when the planned flight altitude exceeds
the maximum altitude of the aircraft.
When creating a flight task in Task Plan Library, make sure that the selected flight
route does not pass through any GEO zones, and that the RTH altitude and flight
route altitude is at least 5 m below the altitude limit. It is recommended that the
flight route keeps a horizontal distance of at least 20 m from the GEO zone.
Buffer Zone
Buffer Zones for Restricted Zones/Authorization Zones: to prevent the aircraft from
accidentally flying into a Restricted or Authorization Zone, the GEO system creates a
buffer zone of about 20 meters wide outside each Restricted and Authorization Zone.
As shown in the illustration below, the aircraft can only take off and land away from
the Restricted or Authorization Zone when inside the buffer zone. The aircraft cannot
fly toward the Restricted or Authorization Zone unless an unlocking request has been
approved. The aircraft cannot fly back into the buffer zone after leaving the buffer zone.
Buffer Zones for Altitude Zones: a buffer zone of about 20 meters wide is established
outside each Altitude Zone. As shown in the illustration below, when approaching the
buffer zone of an Altitude Zone in a horizontal direction, the aircraft will gradually reduce
its flight speed and hover outside the buffer zone. When approaching the buffer zone
from underneath in a vertical direction, the aircraft can ascend and descend in altitude
