Our pilots work in DA16 often enough to know its airspace constraints before we arrive. Typical jobs cover commercial premises, residential developments, industrial units and open sites. We can attend a pre-start meeting where the site requires one.

The value of drone survey here is showing something that is otherwise hard to see. We have flown enough of London to know where DA16 gets complicated. DA16 sits in the Dartford postcode area, which our crews cover as one patch.

The DA16 plan starts from what is on the ground, not from a standard template. Longer lenses let us keep distance from people and property without losing detail. Residents and neighbouring occupiers in DA16 are given notice where the operation warrants it.

Insurance certificates and CAA documentation are issued on request ahead of any DA16 booking. Delivery is by secure cloud transfer, with the raw files retained as backup. Feedback on a first cut is included rather than billed as a revision.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you retain copyright, or do we?

Licensing is agreed before the shoot and written into the quote, so there is no ambiguity afterwards. Tell us how you intend to use the material and we will scope the licence to match.

How long will you be on site in DA16?

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.

Can you work around a live site in DA16?

Yes. We plan around access routes, working hours and pedestrian movement, and can schedule flights for quieter windows to keep ground risk down. Cordons and marshalling are agreed in advance rather than arranged on the day.
