Thames Drone Surveys in Barn Elms

If your project sits in Barn Elms, we can plan and fly it with the river permissions already in place. We work for towage operators, passenger vessel companies, civil contractors and production teams. We can attend a pre-start or toolbox meeting where the project requires one.

We check tide state, river traffic and bridge clearances before fixing a date in Barn Elms. Dual-operator setups let the pilot hold visual line of sight while the camera tracks independently. Where the site is a live wharf or works, we operate to the principal contractor's permit system.

Where the Barn Elms flight affects navigation, we coordinate directly with vessel operators. Emergency landing points are identified on the bank or on a vessel before take-off, never improvised. We do not fly outside our permissions, whatever the production schedule says.

Rushes can go out the same evening where a broadcast deadline requires it. Share the brief and we will confirm crew availability against the tide table the same day. Quotes are fixed, not estimates that drift once the job starts.
