Drone Roof Surveys & Drone Roof Inspection London

London, the capital city of England and the largest in the UK with a population of approximately 9 million people. Located 55 miles north of Brighton, 80 miles northeast of Southampton, and 55 miles south east of Oxford, London stands on the River Thames in the South East of England.

The majority of the central London area falls within both the London CTR (Controlled Traffic Region) and the London City CTR, with numerous other restriction zones affecting drone flight planning. London Heliport and heli-routes across the city, restrictions over parks, and many other considerations mean that flight permissions and authorisations around London can be a daunting prospect.

With a number of prisons (HMP Belmarsh, HMP Wandsworth, HMP Brixton around the London area, each with No-Fly Zones in place between the surface and 164 AGL (Above Ground Level), to avoid the airdropping of nefarious articles to the inmates below, it is important to understand the logistics of your flight and the surrounding area.

Being such a populous area, and the nation’s capital city, the transport infrastructure is enormous around the region with both road and rail networks imposing their own demands on drone operations. Rail networks, in particular, should always be factored into your planning as Network Rail have their own regulations regarding drones around their property in addition to CAA regulations.

While drone flights require greater planning and authorisation in and around town centres, this does not mean that we are unable to fly in these areas. Our trained pilots, alongside our experienced administrative team, will work together to gain the permissions to carry out work in the trickiest of locations!
