Drone Mapping in E16
UAS London provides drone mapping across the E16 postcode district, under CAA operational authorisation and £10M public liability cover.
Recent Work
Selected work from across London and the Thames.
Our drone mapping work reaches every part of E16. Work here covers marketing, records, planning support and condition monitoring. We are happy to work alongside a ground photographer or video crew already on site.
A single well-planned flight over the site often replaces a day of access equipment. We have flown enough of London to know where E16 gets complicated. East London is a regular working area for us, and E16 is part of it.
Where the site in E16 sits near controlled airspace or sensitive infrastructure, we arrange the clearances first. Kit is chosen per brief, from sub-250g aircraft for tight spaces to RTK platforms for centimetre accuracy. We turn down work we cannot do properly rather than take it on and hope.
We can supply method statements and risk assessments for your own site paperwork. Larger data sets are delivered by secure transfer rather than physical media. If we get something wrong, we go back and reshoot it.
Where the job in E16 sits on or over the river, we plan it around tide and traffic and notify the PLA in advance. Our pilots are insured for over-water flight.
What's Included
Thames Riverside Expertise
Because E16 is adjacent to the River Thames, operations here may require specialist maritime knowledge. We coordinate with the Port of London Authority (PLA) and provide highly experienced river skippers when required.

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.
Do we need permission from the landowner or council?
Take-off and landing need the landowner's permission, and we will tell you whose it is before the date. Where a council, managing agent or estate needs sight of our CAA authorisation, insurance or risk assessment, we supply the paperwork directly.
What do we actually receive at the end?
That depends on the brief: graded video, high-resolution stills, orthomosaic maps, 3D models or an inspection report. Raw capture is handed over on the day and finished output follows by secure cloud transfer.
