Thames Aerial Imagery in Woolwich
Specialist over-water thames aerial imagery at Woolwich for marine engineering, logistics, and creative media.
Recent Work
Selected work from across London and the Thames.
If your project sits in Woolwich, we can plan and fly it with the river permissions already in place. Clients here include TV productions, marine contractors, port operators and engineering teams. Tell us the deadline early, because the tide table, not the diary, usually sets the date.
We check tide state, river traffic and bridge clearances before fixing a date in Woolwich. Where the shot demands it, we launch and recover from an MCA-coded support vessel. A contingency window is built in wherever the shot depends on conditions.
We work to PLA requirements as a matter of course rather than as an afterthought. Crews are water-safety trained as well as CAA-licensed. Anything we cannot legally do on the river, we say before you book rather than after.
Edited video, stills, orthomosaics and inspection reports follow the flight within 48 hours. Get in touch to discuss thames aerial imagery in Woolwich and we will quote without obligation. Most enquiries get a same-day response.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much notice do you need for river work in Woolwich?
More than for a land-based shoot, because PLA notification and the tide table both constrain the date. A week or two is comfortable; tell us the deadline and we will tell you honestly whether it is achievable.
Are you insured for flying over water?
Yes. We carry £10M public liability insurance written to cover over-water operations, and can provide the certificate along with our CAA authorisation and a job-specific risk assessment before booking.
How do you manage wind and weather on the river?
The Thames corridor funnels wind and can be considerably rougher than the surrounding streets. We work to maritime forecasts and fly platforms rated to around 25 knots, so a marginal day does not automatically cost you the shoot.
