📷 AERIAL PHOTOGRAPHY · COLMAR (68) · €300–900 PER HALF-DAY
Drone aerial photography in Colmar
In Colmar, altitude reveals what the street cannot: the roofscape, the squares, the spires and the Grand Est countryside starting at the city gates. Aerial photography adds depth to the best-known subjects, starting with Collégiale Saint-Martin. From the town centre to the business parks, the pilots covering Colmar and its department (68) match equipment and flight plan to each order.
Colmar's economy relies on tourism (Christmas markets among the most visited in France), winegrowing, food processing and industry (Liebherr, Timken). Typical drone work: wine-tourism films over the vineyards, winery communication, real estate, construction monitoring and thermal surveys of historic buildings. Prefecture of the Haut-Rhin and capital of Alsace wines, Colmar boasts a remarkably preserved historic centre: Little Venice and its canals, half-timbered houses, the Maison des Têtes, the Unterlinden Museum and its Issenheim altarpiece.

Flight rules in Colmar
Shoots in Colmar are planned around the neighbouring controlled airspace (Abords de l'aérodrome de Colmar-Houssen (LFGA)): capped heights in places and prior coordination with air traffic control, which our pilot handles before any shutter release.
Professional aerial photography is mostly flown in the open category (A1 to A3, 120 m maximum) with an operator registered on AlphaTango; in town or near the public it moves to the specific category with prior declaration. Full regulations and rates: aerial photography across France →
