Coastal Drone Surveys in Gloucester

Professional, sea-safe coastal drone surveys in Gloucester supporting shipping, yachts, and coastal structures.

We cover Gloucester and the surrounding River Severn coast for coastal drone surveys. We supply broadcast media, marketing imagery and engineering-grade survey data. If the conditions in the window you have will not allow the shot, we say so at enquiry stage.

Where the Gloucester target is offshore, we plan the vessel as carefully as the flight. Payloads run from 6K RAW cinema cameras to RTK mapping systems and thermal inspection sensors. We bring spare airframes; offshore is the wrong place for a single point of failure.

Notifications to the coastguard are made where the Gloucester operation warrants it. Our pilots hold advanced CAA permissions covering congested coastal areas and active terminals. We would rather lose the window and rebook than fly a marginal offshore sortie.

Where a weather window is short, we plan the shot list so nothing needs a second mobilisation. Ask about vessel support for Gloucester, because offshore work usually needs it. Terms, marine insurance and permissions can all be reviewed before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much notice do you need for work in Gloucester?

Port clearances and the weather window both drive the lead time, so a week or two is comfortable. Offshore work depends heavily on the forecast, so tell us the deadline and we will be straight with you about the odds.

How long does a marine mobilisation to Gloucester take?

Crew and kit can move quickly; the constraints are port clearance and the forecast. Once those are in hand we can usually be on site within a few days, and we will say up front if the timescale is unrealistic.

Can you film vessels under way near Gloucester?

Yes. Vessel tracking is core to our marine work, from workboats and commercial shipping to yachts under sail. Dual-operator crews keep the pilot focused on proximity and drift while the camera holds the shot.
