Drone surveying & photogrammetry in Agen

Free quote — surveying & photogrammetry in Agen

Banks, flood zones, hydraulic structures: around Agen, topographic data governs projects. The drone surveys the full footprint without setting foot in the water or closing a towpath. The quote reflects the realities on the ground in Agen: site access, the department's airspace context (47) and the expected deliverable — reply within one working day.

Prefecture of Lot-et-Garonne, halfway between Bordeaux and Toulouse, Agen is inseparable from its prune — the ente plum dries on the surrounding hillsides — and from its 539-metre canal bridge, one of France's longest, carrying the lateral canal across the Garonne: a splendid aerial subject. The brick old town around Saint-Caprais cathedral and the Fine Arts museum (with its Vénus du Mas) complete the heritage. Agen-La Garenne aerodrome (LFBA) to the south-west is the main aeronautical landmark. The Agen economy relies on food production (IGP prunes, the fruit-and-vegetable sector of Lot-et-Garonne, France's leading orchard), the pioneering Agropole food-tech park, the national prison-service academy (ENAP) and SUA rugby.

Rates

€800–3,000 per day — the range observed on the 2026 French market, including regulatory preparation, flight and delivery. Every mission in Agen is priced on its own facts: area to cover, flight height, expected deliverable and local formalities.

The airspace context in Agen

Photogrammetric flight plans in Agen are set within the controlled airspace ceilings (Aérodrome d'Agen-La Garenne (LFBA)): ground resolution is guaranteed by adapting height and overlap, with the protocol cleared before the mission.

Photogrammetric surveys fly in the open category over controlled sites, on automated grids below 120 m; urban footprints or sites crossed by third parties move to the specific category with a declaration. Full regulations and rates: surveying & photogrammetry across France →
