Welcome to Aerial Drone Operators - Drone Ash Dieback Tree Surveys

Our Aerial Drone ash dieback tree surveys are precise, safe and fast, for tree management, monitoring and review

Ash dieback (Hymenoscyphus fraxineus) is a serious fungal disease threatening millions of ash trees across the UK. At Aerial Drone UK, we provide specialist ash dieback drone surveys that are beneficial in these ways:

  • Pinpoint Accuracy

Our drones are equipped with 4K cameras, multispectral sensors, and thermal imaging, giving you a comprehensive aerial view of canopy health, defoliation, and dieback symptoms. High-resolution geotagged data supports precise tree-by-tree analysis and long-term monitoring.

  • Faster Inspections

Our UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) systems can cover large areas of woodland or urban tree sites in a fraction of the time it takes for ground-based teams. High-resolution aerial imaging enables us to survey hundreds of trees in a single day, significantly accelerating your surveys.

  • Enhanced Safety

Ash trees weakened by dieback pose a serious safety risk. Traditional climbing or ground inspections can be dangerous. Drones eliminate the need for direct access to compromised trees, protecting surveyors and reducing liability risks.

What We Offer

Aerial Ash Dieback Detection, rapid identification of diseased trees through multispectral and HD imaging, plus vegetation health analysis.

GIS Mapping & Reporting, we generate geo-referenced maps and detailed reports, making it easy to visualise affected areas and prioritise action.

Long-Term Monitoring, track disease progression over time with scheduled surveys and data comparison, all safely conducted from above.

Collaboration with Arborists & Councils, our services are tailored to support local authorities, arborists, landowners, highways agencies, and conservation groups managing ash dieback.
