Thames Drone Surveys in Chiswick
Specialist over-water thames drone surveys at Chiswick for marine engineering, logistics, and creative media.
Recent Work
Selected work from across London and the Thames.
If your project sits in Chiswick, we can plan and fly it with the river permissions already in place. That combination of aviation and marine crew is what makes over-water work practical rather than theoretical. Tell us the deadline early, because the tide table, not the diary, usually sets the date.
We survey the Chiswick bank and the water in advance to fix take-off, landing and contingency points. Capture is in RAW throughout, leaving headroom for grading or photogrammetric processing. Kit is checked ashore before anything is committed over water.
Riparian landowners and pier operators in Chiswick are contacted ahead of the date. All river flights are logged and the records remain available for your own compliance file. We do not fly outside our permissions, whatever the production schedule says.
Edited video, stills, orthomosaics and inspection reports follow the flight within 48 hours. We are trusted on the river by operators including CPBS Marine Services, MMS Marine and the Dutch Master. Terms, marine insurance and permissions can all be reviewed before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who owns the footage from the Chiswick shoot?
Licensing is agreed before the flight and written into the quote. Tell us whether the material is for broadcast, marketing, an operational record or a planning submission and we scope the licence accordingly.
Can you fly at night or in low light on the river?
Yes. Night and blue-hour work over the Thames is something we do regularly, with the lighting conditions and additional risk factored into the plan. Twilight often gives the strongest results on the tideway.
What deliverables can you provide from Chiswick?
Broadcast-ready video, high-resolution stills, georeferenced orthomosaics of the bank and foreshore, 3D models, or written inspection reports. Raw capture is handed over on the day and processed output follows within 24 to 48 hours.
