DJI Go 4 Airspace Warnings Wrong?

Recently, in two different locations, I have received warnings that I was in Class D airspace. Both times, I was in Class G well underneath Class E airspace. One time I was about half a mile horizontally from a Class D area but the other time I was more than 3 miles from the nearest Class D. I verified all this on Airmap and by carefully reviewing the sectional on Skyvector.

Is DJI Go 4 really that prone to these kinds of errors? Does Dji Go 4 take altitude into account? How do I report errors?

Have you checked Geo zone website on DJI? This might help answer some of your questions.

Thanks for the link. Just checked and both areas I was in are within "Warning Zones". So Go 4 is consistent with this map but I still believe they are both wrong.The Geo Zone website doesn't seem to give any indication of why something is flagged as a warning zone. And these warning zones don't correspond to restricted airspace shown on the Sectional.
 
Most unfortunate. Have you tried the B4UFly app? There are many other apps that perform the same function many report hear that they are better.

Another good suggestion, Thank you. Just installed it and checked. B4UFly agrees with the sectional and Airmap. It shows no airspace restrictions on the two areas I flew in.

I really do believe the DJI data is wrong. Any idea where it comes from?
