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.
