🛡️ SECURITY & SURVEILLANCE · PAU (64) · €600–2,500 PER DAY
Drone security & surveillance in Pau
In Pau, the relief creates blind spots for conventional security: the drone checks isolated sites, sloping accesses and large footprints without deploying a ground team. In Pau as across the department (64), a local pilot travels with the equipment the mission requires — free quote within one working day.
The Béarn market rests on the Boulevard des Pyrénées and its mountain panorama — a prime aerial subject —, Henri IV's birthplace castle, the oil and geosciences cluster (TotalEnergies at Lacq-Pau), the Pau Grand Prix street circuit with its one-off restrictions, and the pastoral valleys of Ossau and Aspe thirty minutes away. Pau's sky is heavily military: the army light aviation school and the 5th combat helicopter regiment operate from Pau-Uzein and its training areas, while the civil airport shares the same platform north of the city — protocols and helicopter vigilance are the norm.

Frequently asked questions
Security & surveillance in Pau: what budget should you plan?
Allow €600–2,500 per day — the 2026 French market range, including regulatory preparation, flight and delivery. In Pau, coordination with the local airspace is included in the quote and arranged within a few days.
Is drone surveillance legal in Pau?
Yes, over the monitored site's private footprint and on behalf of its operator: flights comply with local airspace rules (Plateforme de Pau-Uzein (aéroport civil et hélicoptères militaires)) 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.
