There are various applications you can use to create a GeoJSON file based on an area of interest (AOI).
This example uses geojson.io, a free web-based tool used for generating GeoJSON files.
Instructions
1. Launch geojson.io.
2. Navigate to your area of interest (AOI).
3. In the toolbar, select the type of shape to draw. Select line, rectangle, polygon, or point, but in most instances polygon gives you the most control.
4. Using a polygon in this instance, draw an AOI by clicking desired points on the map to outline the AOI. When you complete the polygon, it is shaded and the JSON appears in the output area to the left.
5. To save the AOI as a GeoJSON file, click on Save from the menu bar and select GeoJSON.
You have now created a GeoJSON file that you can import into other applications such as Planet Explorer.
