🏗️ CONSTRUCTION SITE MONITORING · LAVAL (53) · €250–800 LE PASSAGE
Drone construction site monitoring in Laval
In Laval, many projects line the Mayenne: banks, redeveloped quays, waterside housing schemes. The drone flies over what hoardings hide and delivers a complete visual timeline of the site. From the town centre to the business parks, the pilots covering Laval and its department (53) match equipment and flight plan to each order.
Prefecture of the Mayenne, Laval is built around its medieval castle with a unique wooden-hoarded keep, the old bridge and the banks of the Mayenne where France's last wash-boats survive. Birthplace of Henri Rousseau, it cultivates a fertile paradox: a town of art and history, it is also a recognised technology hub with Laval Virtual, the international virtual and augmented reality trade show. Laval-Entrammes aerodrome (LFOV) to the south is the main flight constraint. The Mayenne economy enjoys near-full employment driven by food processing (Lactalis, the world's largest dairy group, is headquartered in Laval), electronics and mechanics.
