BBC One Show – Alex Jones – Mother of All Challenges
We were hired to film aerials for the BBC One Show’s Mother of All Challenges with Alex Jones for Sports Relief at Dorny Lake which was the venue for the 2012 Olympic Rowing.
The shots were used for the event promotion and general advertising, One Show and Sports Relief social media campaigns. Full details about the challenge can be viewed on the Sports Relief website here: www.sportrelief.com/news-and-tv/mother-of-all-challenges

Flown the Same Way Each Visit: The Aerial Progress Record on a Construction Site
A construction site changes faster than almost any ground we fly, and the question asked six months later is usually about a day that has already passed.

This piece sets out what has to stay fixed between flights, the ground sample distance, the overlap and the time of day, why control is re-established on every return, and where the method stops.
A Thermal Picture Is Not a Finding: What a Solar PV Survey Report Has to Carry
A thermal image shows that something on a solar array is warmer than its neighbours. It does not say which module, how much warmer than what, how serious it is, or what should happen next. This is what turns an anomaly into a located, classified and prioritised finding, what the reporting requirements of IEC 62446-3 ask a survey report to carry, and why that document is a different object altogether from a set of thermal pictures.
What Makes a Roof Photograph Worth Having
Roof inspection by drone is a crowded service, and most of it is genuinely the same. What varies is whether the photographs answer the question that prompted the enquiry. This post looks past the flying at the images themselves: why distance, angle and light decide what a frame resolves, how a detail shot becomes evidence when a wider frame places it on the building, and the things no photograph of a roof will ever tell you.
