Drone Survey in DA5
UAS London provides drone survey across the DA5 postcode district, under CAA operational authorisation and £10M public liability cover.
Recent Work
Selected work from across London and the Thames.
We know the airspace picture over DA5 before we quote on it. Briefs range from a single set of stills through to full production support. Deliverables can be split across several recipients where the client team is spread out.
The right altitude for any DA5 site depends entirely on what you are trying to show. Built-up areas like DA5 carry ground-risk rules that open sites do not. We hold current airspace knowledge for Dartford as a whole, DA5 included.
We assess the DA5 location in advance, on foot or from mapping, before any aircraft leaves the case. For confined sites we can drop to sub-250g aircraft without giving up image quality. If conditions change on the day, the pilot's call is final.
Paperwork is ready before the booking is confirmed rather than chased afterwards. Urgent DA5 jobs can be turned around same-day where the schedule allows. Questions get answered by someone who has actually flown the site.
What's Included
Frequently Asked Questions
How long will you be on site in DA5?
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.
Can you fly drones in DA5?
Yes. We hold the necessary permissions to operate safely in DA5. Every operation includes a full risk assessment and coordination with local authorities or airspace controllers where required.
