| AERIAL PLANNING ACROSS WALES | WHAT DOES THE VIEW NEED TO SHOW? |
One country, very different operating environments
Start with the job rather than the scenery
A drone can answer practical questions quickly: what condition is a roof in, how large is a plot, where is the access, how is a construction site progressing, or how does a destination sit within its surroundings?
Urban, rural and coastal work need different planning
Cardiff city centre, a Powys farm, a Pembrokeshire coastal property and a North Wales tourism site can all require different aircraft choices, access arrangements, weather decisions and flight plans.
Agree the useful views before attendance
For larger sites, estates, developments and productions, the priority photographs or movements are agreed first so the finished material is useful rather than excessive.
Use photography and video differently
Photography can document scale, layout and condition efficiently. Video movements normally require more planning and repeat takes so the footage works properly in the final edit.
Plan multi-site work by region
Where several locations are involved, visits can be grouped geographically and scheduled around suitable weather rather than treating every site as an isolated journey.

TV, events & marketing

WHAT SHOULD THE FINAL SET SHOW?
Use the aerial view to explain the site, not simply decorate it
Scale and layout
Show the relationship between buildings, land, access roads, parking, boundaries and surrounding features.
Location
A wider frame can explain where a property, development, destination or venue sits within the Welsh landscape.
Progress and condition
Construction and inspection work benefits from repeatable viewpoints that can be reviewed or compared later.
Movement
For video, establishing, reveal, approach and tracking shots are planned around the final edit rather than flown simply because the aircraft can make the move.
