Banks, flood zones, hydraulic structures: around Auxerre, topographic data governs projects. The drone surveys the full footprint without setting foot in the water or closing a towpath. With 34,634 inhabitants, Auxerre generates steady demand in Bourgogne-Franche-Comté: a pilot covering the area prices your mission within one working day.

The Auxerre economy blends administration, food processing, timber and above all wine: Chablis and its grands crus are twenty minutes away, with the Irancy and Saint-Bris vineyards. AJ Auxerre football club and its stadium complete the local identity. Drone missions: vineyard monitoring (spring frost, harvest), wine tourism, real estate, heritage, river tourism. Prefecture of the Yonne, Auxerre offers from the right bank one of Burgundy's finest river skylines: Saint-Étienne cathedral, Saint-Germain abbey with its Carolingian crypts and Saint-Pierre church terraced above the Yonne quays and the marina.

Flying in Auxerre: the local framework

Photogrammetric flight plans in Auxerre are set within the controlled airspace ceilings (Aérodrome d'Auxerre-Branches (LFLA)): 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 →
