# How do I set or edit a site's geofence boundary?

## Adjust an existing site's geofence shape so GPS sign-ins and sign-outs stay accurate as the site changes.

Open the site's **Geofence Map** tab, drag points to reshape the existing geofence, or select **Reset Map** to clear it and draw a new one, then save your changes.

### **Before you begin **

The site must already have a geofence — check that **Geofenced** shows Yes for it in the Sites list.

### **Step-by-step guide **

#### **Step 1: Open the site's Geofence Map **

Go to **Sites**, select the site, then select the **Geofence Map** tab.

#### **Step 2: Adjust the shape**

Drag any point to move it, or drag the midpoint between two points to add a new one. Check **Current Size** against **Allowed Geofence Size** below the map.

**Note -** the default maximum geofence size is 50,000 square metres. This limit is set per site and can only be raised by SiteConnect support 

#### **Step 3: Start over, if needed**

If you want to clear the geofence completely, select **Reset Map**, then click at least three points on the map to draw a new boundary and select **Finish Drawing**.

#### **Step 4: Save your changes**

Select **Save**.

### **Result**

You'll know the change has been saved when SiteConnect confirms the geofence map was updated.

### **Scope**

This article covers adjusting or redrawing an existing geofence. To draw a geofence for the first time, see [How do I enable geofencing for a site](https://docs.sitesoft.com/enable-geofencing-for-a-site?hsLang=en)?
