Aerial view of electricity pylons and powerlines crossing green UK farmland

Powerlines & infrastructure

Aerial inspection of pylons, powerline assets, masts and gantries. High-resolution imagery helps asset teams assess condition, identify defects and plan maintenance while reducing work at height.

Roof & building surveys

Detailed aerial imagery of commercial, industrial and difficult-to-access roofs and buildings. Useful for identifying visible defects, deterioration, drainage issues and areas that need closer investigation without relying on extensive access equipment.

Photogrammetry & 3D modelling

Overlapping aerial imagery can be processed into measurable orthomosaics, point clouds and 3D models for inspection, planning, measurement, design support and project records.

Topographical mapping

Aerial survey data for construction sites, earthworks, developments and linear assets. Outputs can support site understanding, progress measurement, volume calculations and planning when captured to the required survey specification.

Confined-space inspections

Specialist drone inspection for culverts, tanks, shafts, ducts and other enclosed or difficult-to-access environments. This can provide a detailed visual and spatial record while reducing the need to place people inside the asset.

Why choose us

Every flight.
Done properly.

Safety-led access

Use drones to reduce unnecessary work at height, difficult access and exposure to challenging environments.

Built around the job

Flight planning, aircraft and sensors are selected around the site, asset and information the client actually needs.

Useful data

The aim is not simply to collect photographs. Outputs are chosen so they can support inspection, measurement, reporting and decision-making.

Flexible project delivery

Aerial Focus can scale the equipment and payloads around the project rather than forcing every job into one standard setup.

Clear communication

Scope, deliverables and expected turnaround are agreed before the work begins.

One point of contact

Planning, capture, processing and delivery are managed through Aerial Focus from start to finish.

Confidence.
Start to Finish.

FAQs

You have questions.
We have answers.

What areas do you cover?

Aerial Focus works across the UK. Projects are planned around site access, airspace, weather and client requirements.

What do you need to provide a quotation?

The site location, what you need inspected or surveyed, approximate site size or route length, required outputs and your preferred timeframe. Drawings, photos or existing site information are also useful.

Can you provide survey data as well as photographs?

Yes. Depending on the project, outputs can include orthomosaics, point clouds, 3D models, elevation data, measurements, imagery and inspection records.

Can you work on operational or restricted sites?

Potentially, subject to site rules, permissions, airspace and the risk assessment for the operation.

How quickly is the data delivered?

Turnaround is agreed against the scope of each project. Straightforward imagery can be delivered quickly, while larger mapping, modelling or reporting projects need additional processing time.

Can drone inspections reduce the need for scaffolding or access equipment?

Often, yes. A drone can provide detailed visual access to many areas without putting people at height, although the final method depends on the asset and the level of inspection required.
