Our drone surveys and inspections complement—rather than replace—traditional methods. They’re safer, faster, and often more cost-effective.
We hold PDRA/SORA special flight authorisation.

| Costs | Efficient, scalable pricing | High personnel and equipment costs |
Drone inspections are faster, safer, and more cost-effective. They enable inspections without downtime, reach hard-to-access areas, and deliver more precise data via high-resolution cameras and thermal sensors. The result: reduced outages, lower risk for personnel, and better maintenance decisions.
No—FlyHigh handles all required flight permits. Thanks to our PDRA and SORA certifications, we operate legally and safely even in complex, sensitive areas such as urban zones, near airports, or over industrial sites. You’ll receive all necessary documentation for your records.
We deliver data in all common industry formats to ensure seamless integration with your existing workflows. These include GeoTIFF for orthophotos, LAS/LAZ for point clouds, DWG/DXF for CAD applications, and IFC for BIM software. On request, we can also provide specific formats for your software.
Project timelines depend on size and complexity. Smaller inspection projects can be completed within 1–3 days. Larger surveying projects typically take 3–7 days.
Our professional drones are partly weatherproof (IP55) and can operate in winds up to 15 m/s and light rain. For optimal data quality, we prefer dry conditions and moderate winds. We continuously monitor the forecast and plan flexibly to ensure the best results.
Yes, we develop tailored monitoring programs for regular inspections and surveillance. These can be monthly, quarterly, or yearly and are ideal for tracking construction progress, assessing asset condition, or analyzing environmental changes. Long-term contracts offer cost benefits.
Our pricing is transparent and project-based. Inspections are often billed per asset or on a time-and-materials basis, while surveys are typically charged per hectare. For each project we provide a detailed fixed-price quote with no hidden costs. Contact us for a no-obligation estimate.
We primarily operate in Germany, Poland, Switzerland, and Austria. Thanks to harmonised EU regulations, we can flexibly extend our services to other European countries. For international projects, we can obtain the required permits within 2–4 weeks.
