Commercial drone surveys that reduce risk and downtime
Traditional inspections often mean scaffolding, rope access, shutdowns and high costs. Our commercial drone survey and drone inspection teams capture the data you need quickly—minimising disruption while improving safety and visibility.
From roof and building inspections to flare stacks, transmission towers and large industrial assets, we provide clear deliverables your engineers and stakeholders can act on.

Construction Progress Photography, Drone Video & Time-Lapse Monitoring
Global Drone Surveys helps construction, infrastructure and industrial teams keep projects visible and accountable with professional drone photography, 4K aerial video and construction time-lapse. Built to complement our drone surveys and drone inspections, this service gives project managers and stakeholders clear, consistent visuals for progress reporting, site updates and milestone communications.
We capture high-resolution imagery across live sites with minimal disruption, then supply organised, project-ready files that are easy to review and share. For longer programmes, our remote time-lapse camera systems provide continuous monitoring—from enabling works to handover—creating a reliable visual record for programme control, claims support and media releases.
If you need a single partner for drone survey data and construction progress capture, our team plans and delivers both workflows under a safety-led, compliant process—so your reporting remains accurate, timely and professional.

Mission Statement
Our mission is to deliver safe, compliant drone surveys, inspections and mapping that help clients plan, build and maintain assets with confidence. We provide high-quality data and imagery—on time, every time.
