Industrial Drone Inspection Services

Our UAV inspection services provide a safer, faster, and more cost-effective alternative to traditional rope access or scaffolding. Using state-of-the-art enterprise drones equipped with 45MP+ high-resolution cameras and specialised sensors, we access hard-to-reach areas and capture detailed engineering-grade imagery without putting personnel at risk.

From industrial facilities to national infrastructure assets, our drone inspections deliver comprehensive visual data that helps identify structural issues early, reduce operational downtime, and optimise long-term maintenance planning.

  • High-resolution visual inspections (100MP imagery, 6K video)
  • Radiometric thermal imaging for structural & electrical anomalies
  • Professional inspection reports with high-res annotated imagery
  • AI-powered defect detection for automated asset management

Topographical Insights & Digital Twins

Turn complex aerial captures into geo-referenced, decision-ready insights. From 3D asset monitoring to construction progress reporting, we deliver measurable accuracy at scale for projects that demand absolute precision.

Our Professional Drone Workflow

We don’t just fly drones; we deliver actionable geospatial intelligence. From CAA-approved flight planning to high-accuracy LiDAR outputs, every step is engineered for survey-grade results.

Expert Mission Planning

Before deployment, we conduct comprehensive site risk assessments and airspace management. This includes checking NOTAMs, terrain analysis, and aligning flight paths to capture the high-density data required for your specific survey objectives.

Our team ensures every mission is executed with industrial-grade efficiency, full regulatory compliance, and a focus on delivering sub-centimetre accuracy where required.

Advanced UAV Technology

We operate enterprise RTK and PPK-enabled drones equipped with LiDAR, thermal, and 100MP sensors. Our fleet is optimized for endurance, providing stable data capture even in challenging UK weather conditions.

From photogrammetry to multispectral sensing, our outputs integrate seamlessly into BIM, CAD environments, GIS platforms, and industrial asset management workflows.

CAA Safety & Compliance

Operating under a full CAA Operating Safety Case (OSC), Aerometrics is authorized for complex urban operations and congested airspace. Every project includes detailed RAMS (Risk Assessment & Method Statements).

Our remote pilots are GVC and A2 CofC certified. We maintain comprehensive insurance and strictly adhere to UK drone laws, ensuring total peace of mind for Tier 1 contractors and local authorities.
