AIR PHOTO

Capturing the Inaccessible:

An Odyssey in Aerial Photography

Aerial photography services provided by drones find application in a variety of professional sectors for the inspection, control, measurement or evaluation of buildings, infrastructure or land of all types.

With high definition and 4K resolution, these premium aerial images can be displayed or printed in large format on a variety of media, providing fast and cost-effective solutions.

Each capture is carried out in accordance with safety rules and in compliance with French airspace regulations. The drone allows shots to be taken from the ground up to a maximum altitude of 120 meters, offering varied and unique perspectives. In urban areas, a flight authorization is required to take the photo.

Aerial drone imagery is valuable to a wide range of professionals, including but not limited to construction, public works, agriculture, industry, commerce, crafts, as well as real estate and insurance, among others. This technology is frequently used for inspections, checks, presentations, but also for applications such as thermography and mapping, whether to assess the condition of a road or a roof, measure the extent damage to a structure following a storm, or identify heat loss.

Aerial imagery via drone

Before launching the aerial photography session, our operator carries out a thorough reconnaissance of the site to determine the optimal flight path and, if necessary, carries out the required authorizations. Following this, the remote pilot adjusts his equipment to begin capturing images.

Thanks to the flexibility of the drone, it is possible to capture images at various altitudes, allowing shots as close to the ground as possible or from a considerable height. The on-board photographic equipment makes it possible to obtain both overview views and detailed close-up shots.

Regulatory Framework for Aerial Photography by Drone

Carrying out aerial photography within French airspace, for commercial purposes using a drone, requires the intervention of a professional operator registered with the Directorate General of Civil Aviation ( DGAC). This also includes a specific declaration of activity in the fields of aerial photography and cinematography.

Depending on the precise location of the shots and the different possible flight scenarios (initially S1 - S2 - S3 - S4, evolving towards STS 01 and STS 02 scenarios in 2024, in accordance with the new European regulations for which our pilots are certified ), it may be necessary to obtain specific prefectural authorizations. Our team of remote pilots and professional photographers takes care of all the necessary administrative procedures, ensuring the flight and capture of aerial images according to your expectations.

Drone Instinct is committed to providing aerial photography services across all French departments, scrupulously ensuring compliance with safety standards and flight authorization procedures essential for the operation of drones in airspace.
