Thames Drone Filming at Greenwich Reach

Specialist over-water thames drone filming at Greenwich Reach for marine engineering, logistics, and creative media.

Recent Work

Selected work from across London and the Thames.

Operations at Greenwich Reach draw on both our aviation and our marine experience. We supply broadcast media, survey data and structural inspection imagery from the same operating base. We quote per project, because a river job depends far more on access and tide than on the service name.

We identify launch and recovery points at Greenwich Reach that work at the state of tide on the day. Output can be broadcast-ready ProRes, high-bitrate RAW, or georeferenced survey data. Battery and crew changes are planned around the window so nothing is lost mid-sequence.

PLA notification, harbour master liaison and VTS contact for Greenwich Reach are handled in-house. Our pilots hold advanced CAA permissions covering congested river corridors and historic crossings. Privacy on the bank is considered in the flight plan, not left to the edit.

We retain the raw river capture in case you need to return to it later. Send us the dates and the shot list and we will tell you which tides are viable. There is no obligation attached to an enquiry.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you film moving vessels at Greenwich Reach?

Yes. Vessel tracking is a large part of our river work, from towage and workboat operations to passenger craft. Dual-operator crews let the pilot manage proximity and line of sight while the camera operator holds the shot.

What does river work at Greenwich Reach cost?

It depends on tide windows, whether vessel support is needed and what you want delivered, so we quote per project. Send the brief and the deadline and we will come back with a fixed price and the viable tides.

What deliverables can you provide from Greenwich Reach?

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.
