Port & Harbour Surveys in Isle of Wight

Professional, sea-safe port & harbour surveys in Isle of Wight supporting shipping, yachts, and coastal structures.

We fly port & harbour surveys in the harbours, approaches and offshore waters around Isle of Wight. We supply broadcast media, marketing imagery and engineering-grade survey data. Where a brief covers several berths or structures, we plan them into a single mobilisation.

Operations in Isle of Wight are timed to avoid conflict with commercial shipping movements. Capture is RAW throughout so the material survives grading or photogrammetric processing. We can work outside normal hours where tide, traffic or light demands it.

Notifications to the coastguard are made where the Isle of Wight operation warrants it. We carry £10M public liability insurance written to cover marine and over-water operations. If the port position or the airspace makes the job impossible, you hear it at enquiry stage.

Rushes can go out the same evening where a deadline requires it. Tell us the Isle of Wight brief and we will confirm what the conditions realistically allow. Happy to advise on feasibility even if you end up not booking.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if the weather closes the window in Isle of Wight?

We monitor maritime forecasts in the days beforehand and will tell you early if it looks unworkable. If conditions make the operation unsafe we rebook the next viable window at no additional cost.

How do you ensure safety when flying over sea water?

We use redundant airframes with float kits where appropriate, and every flight plan sets geofenced return-to-home limits that account for wind drift, sea state and a moving launch point.

Do you carry out structural inspections of port infrastructure?

Yes. We fly high-zoom and thermal payloads for close-range condition survey of quays, jetties, coastal defences and offshore structures, delivered as annotated reports or georeferenced imagery.
