Boat Filming London in Greenwich
Specialist over-water boat filming london at Greenwich for marine engineering, logistics, and creative media.
Our professional boat filming london team is fully authorised for flights in Greenwich. Running drone operations along the Thames corridor involves strict coordination with the Port of London Authority (PLA) and local vessel operators—logistics that our experienced crew handles from start to finish.
For our river operations in Greenwich, we utilize specialist marine-equipped drones. These platforms are configured to handle the challenging wind shear and magnetic interference common near large steel structures and bridges. We maintain a fleet capable of operating from the riverbanks or launching directly from MCA-coded support vessels on the river.
Safety over water is paramount. Our flight routes in Greenwich are designed with clear emergency landing zones on the river or designated shore points. We coordinate with local piers, riverfront properties, and riparian landowners to establish secure take-off and landing sites.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you need Port of London Authority (PLA) approval to fly in Greenwich?
Yes. Any professional drone operation on the tidal River Thames, including Greenwich, requires coordination and notification with the PLA and London VTS. UAS London manages all PLA clearances and notifications as part of our turnkey river service.
Can you launch drones directly from boats in Greenwich?
Yes. Through our partnership with Cinecraft, we have access to MCA-coded workboats and support vessels. Our pilots are highly experienced in launching and landing drone platforms from moving vessels, allowing us to capture close-up marine action.
How do you manage wind and weather risks on the river?
The Thames corridor often experiences high wind speeds. We monitor maritime weather forecasts closely. Our heavy-lift drone platforms are rated to fly in winds up to 25 knots, ensuring we can capture stable footage even in challenging estuary conditions.
