🛡️ SECURITY & SURVEILLANCE · BORDEAUX (33) · €600–2,500 PER DAY
Drone security & surveillance in Bordeaux
In Bordeaux, the sites along the Garonne — quays, warehouses, riverbank works — are large and open: the drone rounds them in one flight, detects intrusions and anomalies, and documents every finding in high definition. From the town centre to the business parks, the pilots covering Bordeaux and its department (33) match equipment and flight plan to each order.
The Gironde metropolis is a complete market: booming real estate around Euratlantique and the Bassins à flot, prestigious wine estates (Médoc, Pessac-Léognan, Saint-Émilion) that are heavy users of vineyard mapping and monitoring, river tourism on the Garonne, and structural inspections from the Chaban-Delmas bridge to the Cité du Vin. The Bordeaux-Mérignac CTR, shared with air base 106, covers the west of the conurbation: urban flights require coordination with both civil and military aviation.

Flying in Bordeaux: the local framework
Under controlled airspace (CTR de Bordeaux-Mérignac (aéroport et base aérienne 106)), aerial patrols in Bordeaux follow a standing protocol agreed with ATC: recurring low-height flights over the monitored site become a simple notice formality.
Drone surveillance operates over the client's private site, in the open or specific category depending on surroundings; capture is limited to the site (GDPR) and overflying public space remains reserved for the authorities. Full regulations and rates: security & surveillance across France →

Frequently asked questions
Security & surveillance in Bordeaux: what budget should you plan?
Allow €600–2,500 per day — the 2026 French market range, including regulatory preparation, flight and delivery. In Bordeaux, coordination with the local airspace is included in the quote and arranged within a few days.
Is drone surveillance legal in Bordeaux?
Yes, over the monitored site's private footprint and on behalf of its operator: flights comply with local airspace rules (CTR de Bordeaux-Mérignac (aéroport et base aérienne 106)) and image capture is limited to the client's perimeter, as GDPR requires. Public space remains the exclusive preserve of the authorities.
Can the footage serve as evidence in case of intrusion?
Yes, if capture was lawful: flight over your own property, declared system, employees informed. Time-stamped recordings are then admissible and handed to law enforcement if charges are filed.
