The DJI Matrice 350 RTK provides centimeter-level positioning accuracy for projects requiring precise georeferencing, while the Mavic 3 Enterprise offers flexibility for rapid deployment and complex site navigation.

We capture imagery in optimal lighting conditions, schedule flights around operational constraints, and coordinate with site management to ensure safe, efficient operations. Post-processing maintains color accuracy and detail while delivering files optimized for your specific use case-whether technical documentation, marketing materials, or compliance reporting.

Permits and Airspace: What We Handle

Madrid's control zone runs from the surface up to 1,000 feet, so there is no altitude below it. In August 2026 we checked nineteen industrial and logistics areas around the region against ENAIRE's official UAS zone service: sixteen sit inside the control zone, an aerodrome or heliport protection zone, or both, and in twelve of them the protection zone begins at ground level, so flying lower does not remove the requirement to coordinate. The Corredor del Henares, Getafe, Fuenlabrada, Pinto and the Villaverde axis are all in that group.

We handle the coordination in house. It is not delegated to the client and it is not outsourced. That covers the ENAIRE request through ENAIRE PLANEA, the five calendar day notification to the Ministry of the Interior that a serviced industrial estate triggers under Royal Decree 517/2024, coordination with the Ministry of Defence where a military zone is involved, and the separate authorisation from the Centro Cartográfico y Fotográfico del Ejército del Aire y del Espacio where a photographic flight restriction applies.

What we bring to a procurement or HSE review: AESA operator registration; remote pilot certification at the category the operation requires; the UAS radiofonista qualification on the ground crew, which allows direct communication with Madrid ATC when an operation needs the aeronautical mobile service; civil liability insurance on every assignment; PRL occupational safety training for site access; and CAE documentation submitted through your contractor coordination platform before the crew arrives. Insurance and coverage documents are shared on request, before the shoot.

Lead times depend on the airspace and we confirm them for your exact location when we quote. We do not promise an authorisation, because that decision belongs to the authority. We do undertake that the request is prepared correctly and submitted in good time. Our guide to drone permits in Madrid sets out the rules behind all of this, area by area.

Typical deliverables

Frequently Asked Questions

We’re based in Madrid and provide drone photography services across Europe. We’ve completed assignments in Spain, France, Italy, Denmark, Portugal, Croatia, Bulgaria, Greece, Qatar, Morocco, and Turkey. International projects scheduled with advance coordination.

Yes. We hold AESA operator registration, and our remote pilots hold AESA competency certificates at the category each operation requires under Regulation (EU) 2019/947 and Royal Decree 517/2024. We carry civil liability insurance on every assignment. Where the airspace requires it, we obtain the site-specific coordination and authorisations before the flight.

Primary systems include DJI Matrice 350 RTK for precision operations and Mavic 3 Enterprise for versatile coverage. Equipment selection depends on project requirements-RTK positioning for survey work, cinema-quality sensors for promotional content, thermal imaging when specified. All systems are enterprise-grade with redundant safety features.

Duration varies by project scope. A standard commercial property requires 1-2 hours on-site including setup and multiple flight sessions. Large industrial facilities or construction sites may require half-day or full-day scheduling. Complex multi-location projects planned across multiple days. Time estimates provided during project planning.

Standard deliverables include high-resolution JPG files optimized for web and print use. RAW files (DNG format) available for projects requiring maximum editing flexibility. Video delivered in specified resolution (4K/6K standard) and format (MP4, ProRes). Georeferenced imagery and photogrammetric data provided when required for technical applications.

Yes. We have extensive experience operating at active manufacturing facilities, logistics centers, pharmaceutical plants, and construction sites. Our approach includes pre-flight site assessment, coordination with facility management, and adherence to site-specific safety protocols. PRL occupational safety certification covers site access and induction requirements.

Working with us

Crew
Standard crew is one photographer. A second photographer, a drone pilot or a lighting assistant are added by scope and quoted per line, so you can see what each one costs and decide whether the shoot needs it.
Booking and rescheduling
A non refundable booking fee reserves the date and is credited against the final invoice. Rescheduling is free more than 72 hours before the shoot. Weather is never charged: if conditions make the work impossible we move the date at no cost. If we cancel, the booking fee is refunded in full.
Licensing
Retail and brand work includes a broad commercial licence in the fee, because those images are made to be published. Industrial and architectural work is quoted with a licence line of its own, since the same photograph can serve an internal report or a global campaign and those are not the same thing. The parameters that set it are the territory, the duration, the media, and whether third parties such as suppliers or architects may use the files.
Insurance and site access
We carry 300,000 EUR of civil liability cover and work with our own PPE. Site inductions, safety briefings and access paperwork are handled before the shoot day rather than at the gate.
Delivery and retouching
Final delivery runs 5 to 10 days after the shoot, in web and print resolutions. Standard colour and perspective correction is included. Object removal, compositing and other advanced retouching is quoted separately, per image.
Confidentiality
We sign your NDA. Where a project is confidential, nothing from it appears in a portfolio, a case study or a social post, and that holds after the work is delivered and paid.
