Drone Aerial Photography & Inspection Service for Wessex

WINCHESTER, U.K. - Jan. 27, 2015 - PRLog -- Wessex Aerial Photography takes off this month offering an aerial photography service to clients in the south and nationwide.  Ben Lovegrove, former private pilot and now retrained to fly unmanned aircraft, is looking forward to providing aerial filming and inspection services for domestic and commercial clients in southern England.

Increasing numbers of businesses are finding that video and thermal cameras mounted on drones can provide time, effort, and money saving data as well as marketing enhancements.  Risky tasks such as roof inspections can now be conducted safely and at a fraction of the cost.  Time consuming inspections of solar parks can now be conducted by drones on autopilot.  Estate agents can showcase properties using an aerial perspective.  Archaeologists and historians can examine landscapes and monuments revealing hitherto hidden clues.  Designers can plan and showcase gardens using aerial footage.  Hotels and golf clubs can illustrate their facilities using an aerial video tour.

Safe and legal flying of drones for commercial purposes in the UK is monitored by the CAA (Civil Aviation Authority).  Companies and individuals who offer these services have to obtain CAA approval in the form of a PFAW (Permission for Aerial Work) having completed the required training under the guidance of an authorised training company. Ben Lovegrove has obtained such approval from the CAA having passed the relevant assessments under the tuition of the unmanned aviation specialists, Resource Group.
