Drone surveying & photogrammetry in Mont-de-Marsan

Free quote — surveying & photogrammetry in Mont-de-Marsan

Around Mont-de-Marsan, land consolidation, development zones and infrastructure call for up-to-date surveys: the drone covers dozens of hectares per flight and delivers DTMs, contour lines and volumes with fully traceable accuracy. From Musée Despiau-Wlérick et donjon Lacataye to the outlying districts, our pilots know the terrain of Mont-de-Marsan and prepare every flight on the local aeronautical chart.

Prefecture of the Landes at the confluence of the Douze and Midou rivers (forming the Midouze), Mont-de-Marsan is above all, for drone pilots, a city under military air authority: air base 118, one of France's largest, fields Rafales, test squadrons and the air-warfare expertise centre — its prohibited and restricted zones cover much of the sector, and any local mission is prepared with the drone map and, often, coordination with the base. The city itself cultivates figurative sculpture (the Despiau-Wlérick museum, a triennial), the Plumaçon bullring and the Madeleine festival. The local economy blends defence, administration, food production (poultry, maize, nearby Armagnac) and forestry — the Landes de Gascogne forest, western Europe's largest planted forest, surrounds the town and faces summer overflight restrictions during fire-risk periods.

Flight rules in Mont-de-Marsan

A photogrammetric survey in Mont-de-Marsan covers the site in parallel flight lines: inside the restricted perimeter (Zones interdites et réglementées de la base aérienne 118 (Rafale, expérimentation)), the authorisation must describe that grid precisely — a technical file we prepare as standard.

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 →
