Drone surveying & photogrammetry in Montreuil

Free quote — surveying & photogrammetry in Montreuil

Around Montreuil, 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. The quote reflects the realities on the ground in Montreuil: site access, the department's airspace context (93) and the expected deliverable — reply within one working day.

Like the whole inner ring, Montreuil lies within the Paris conurbation's low-altitude no-fly zone: every flight requires authorisation from the Paris police prefecture, with lead times of several weeks. The city also sits under helicopter routes serving eastern Paris hospitals, and the nearby Bois de Vincennes has its own overflight rules. Montreuil's demand is that of a city in full transformation: industrial workshops converted into offices and studios (the Croix-de-Chavaux district draws audiovisual and video-game production), the unique horticultural heritage of the peach walls to document, Bas-Montreuil housing programmes and roof inspections across a heterogeneous faubourg building stock.

Airspace and formalities in Montreuil

A photogrammetric survey in Montreuil covers the site in parallel flight lines: inside the restricted perimeter (Zone interdite basse altitude de l'agglomération parisienne (autorisation préfecture de police)), 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 →

Frequently asked questions

Surveying & photogrammetry in Montreuil: what budget should you plan?

Allow €800–3,000 per day — the 2026 French market range, including regulatory preparation, flight and delivery. Build the overflight-authorisation lead time for Montreuil into your schedule: several weeks depending on the case.

What accuracy can a drone survey achieve in Montreuil?

With GNSS-measured ground control points, the orthophoto and point cloud reach 2–5 cm planimetric accuracy — enough for a preliminary design survey. For legally binding documents we work under a partner chartered surveyor covering Île-de-France.

Does vegetation interfere with photogrammetric surveys?

Yes: photogrammetry measures the visible surface, so the canopy rather than the ground beneath. For wooded areas, we offer drone LiDAR, which penetrates vegetation and reconstructs the bare terrain.
