Thames Drone Surveys in Greenwich
Specialist over-water thames drone surveys at Greenwich for marine engineering, logistics, and creative media.
Recent Work
Selected work from across London and the Thames.
We work in Greenwich regularly, and river operations are the core of what we do. Typical briefs cover vessel tracking, riverside development, bridge condition and event coverage. We are used to working alongside vessel crews, ground units and marshals already on site.
Where the Greenwich flight passes near bridges or moorings, we plan clearances and abort routes first. We fly marine-configured aircraft rated for the wind speeds the river corridor regularly produces. Time on site is agreed in advance so vessel and shore teams can plan around it.
Our crews hold marine VHF and stay in contact with river traffic while the aircraft is airborne. Ground safety on the bank, meaning cordons, pedestrian routes and marshals, is planned alongside the flight. Anything we cannot legally do on the river, we say before you book rather than after.
Turnaround is same-day for raw and 24 to 48 hours for finished output. Talk to our skippers before you commit. They will tell you quickly whether the shot is achievable. Terms, marine insurance and permissions can all be reviewed before you commit.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does river work in Greenwich 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.
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, and our pilots are experienced in launching and recovering from a moving deck.
What deliverables can you provide from Greenwich?
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.
