Construction Site Mapping in DA18

Construction site mapping in DA18, quoted per job and delivered to a spec you agree up front.

Our construction site mapping work in DA18 spans everything from single-shoot jobs to repeat site visits. Work here covers marketing, records, planning support and condition monitoring. Budgets and deadlines are easier to design around when we know them early.

An aerial set of the site gives you context that a street-level photograph loses. Tall structures around DA18 affect both signal and wind, and we plan for both. DA18 sits in the Dartford postcode area, which our crews cover as one patch.

Any DA18 flight close to controlled airspace gets NATS or ATC coordination arranged in advance. We capture in RAW throughout, so there is headroom left in the grade or the processing. Crew brief happens on site, in front of whoever is responsible for the ground.

We are CAA approved and insured to £10M public liability on every job. Send the DA18 address and the brief, and we will come back with a fixed price. We do not add charges after the fact for travel or parking in DA18.

DA18 fronts the tidal Thames, so a job here can mean launching from the bank, from a pier or from a vessel. We are set up and insured for all three, with PLA coordination handled as standard.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are you CAA approved?

Yes. UAS London is fully CAA approved with enhanced permissions for commercial drone operations in built-up areas. We carry £10M public liability insurance.

How long will you be on site in DA18?

Most single-subject jobs take one to three hours on site including setup, briefing and packing down. Larger sites, multiple elevations or survey work take longer, and we confirm the expected window when we quote.

Do you need us to close anything off while you fly?

Usually not. Most jobs are flown with a small cordon around the take-off point and sensible separation from people on the ground. Where a site genuinely needs more, we will tell you at the planning stage rather than on the morning.
