Drone Surveying in Chester, Land Mapping for Development & Conservation
Drone Surveying in Chester, Historic Precision, Modern Efficiency
Chester’s blend of historic conservation areas, suburban growth, and greenbelt land presents unique challenges when it comes to accurate surveying. Our RTK drone surveying service brings the precision of modern aerial mapping to projects in and around Chester supporting planners, conservationists, developers, and environmental consultants with rapid, risk-free data collection.
​
We’ve surveyed sites from the historic core near the Roman walls to business parks along the A51 corridor and farmland bordering the Welsh hills. By capturing high-resolution, centimetre-accurate data from above, we enable faster site understanding, better stakeholder reporting, and confident planning decisions.

Mapping the Balance Between Heritage and Growth
In a city where heritage meets expansion, Chester’s planning and development activity demands a balance between accuracy, minimal disruption, and regulatory compliance. Drone surveying allows us to meet those needs with no ground disturbance, rapid site turnaround, and outputs compatible with CAD, BIM, and GIS environments.
​
Whether you’re working on a topographic survey for a new housing scheme in Huntington, ecological monitoring along the River Dee, or design planning for infrastructure near Chester Business Park, our RTK drones offer a smarter alternative to traditional surveys. Repeat flights also support long-term visual change tracking ideal for planning conditions, restoration projects, and phased developments.
Case Study: Event Field Survey

We were commissioned to survey a 10-acre event field, which is used for public gatherings, temporary infrastructure, and environmental outreach. The client needed a detailed understanding of the site’s topography to plan safer access routes, identify flood-prone areas, and manage surface water runoff during large events.
Our RTK-enabled drone completed the survey in under two hours, capturing high-resolution aerial imagery and generating a full digital surface model. The output included precise contours, 3D terrain mapping, and orthomosaic data. The client used our data to reconfigure their site layout and access plan thus improving usability and minimising environmental impact ahead of the next season.
