UK Marine Drone Filming in Leith

Professional, sea-safe UK marine drone filming in Leith supporting shipping, yachts, and coastal structures.

Recent Work

Selected work from across London and the Thames.

We run UK marine drone filming in Leith for commercial operators, yacht owners and engineering teams. Projects run from single-vessel commissions to scheduled inspection programmes. If the conditions in the window you have will not allow the shot, we say so at enquiry stage.

Flights in Leith are planned around tide, sea state and commercial traffic movements. RTK-equipped platforms deliver centimetre-accurate mapping of quays, defences and foreshore. Where the subject is under way, the shot is planned around its passage, not ours.

Any flight inside Leith harbour limits is cleared with the authority before the crew arrives. We carry £10M public liability insurance written to cover marine and over-water operations. Nothing launches until the paperwork, the passage plan and the brief agree with each other.

Turnaround is same-day for raw and 24 to 48 hours for finished output. Tell us the Leith brief and we will confirm what the conditions realistically allow. Ask for examples of comparable marine work and we will send them over.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are you insured for marine operations?

Yes. We carry £10M public liability insurance written to cover marine and over-water flight, and can supply the certificate, our CAA authorisation and a job-specific risk assessment before booking.

Do you require harbour authority clearance for UK marine drone filming in Leith?

Any professional drone operation within port or harbour limits at Leith needs clearance from the harbour master and port authority. UAS London arranges those approvals and keeps the coordination logs as part of the service.

Can you deliver survey-grade data as well as imagery?

Yes. RTK-equipped platforms produce georeferenced orthomosaics and 3D models of quays, defences and structures to centimetre accuracy, delivered in the formats your engineering team already uses.
