🛡️ SECURITY & SURVEILLANCE · SAINT-BRIEUC (22) · €600–2,500 PER DAY
Drone security & surveillance in Saint-Brieuc
Drones have become a remarkably effective security auxiliary: alarm verification in minutes where a patrol takes an hour, perimeter surveillance of large industrial and logistics sites, thermal cameras detecting a human presence at night several hundred metres away, inspection of fences and blind spots of fixed cameras. Paired with a security control room, they multiply a ground team's coverage without multiplying headcount.
We offer one-off missions (surveillance of a private event, a sensitive construction site over a weekend, intrusion searches) as well as recurring arrangements in partnership with licensed private security companies holding the required CNAPS authorisations. Every mission undergoes a prior legal review: image capture falls under GDPR and, for public roads, under a framework strictly reserved for the authorities.

The local context in Saint-Brieuc
Prefecture of the Côtes-d'Armor, Saint-Brieuc clings to a plateau carved by the Gouët and Gouédic valleys, spanned by viaducts — a singular urban relief from the air, around the fortress cathedral of Saint-Étienne and half-timbered lanes. To the north, the bay of Saint-Brieuc, fifth in the world for tidal range, hosts a national nature reserve where low-altitude flight is banned to protect wintering birds; offshore turns the bay's marine wind farm.
The local economy relies on agri-food (Le Gouessant, slaughterhouses and cooperatives), the Légué port at the head of the bay and departmental services. The Art Rock festival animates the city every spring. Typical drone missions: structure inspection (viaducts), construction monitoring, port and bay imagery (outside the reserve), vegetable farming and agri-food communication.
Applicable regulations
Private drone surveillance is only lawful above private property with the site operator's consent: drone surveillance of public roads is reserved for law enforcement under a specific legal framework. Night flights, essential for security work, are prohibited in the open category and require the specific category (an operational authorisation with SORA risk assessment or a suitable scenario). Added to this are French internal-security code obligations for surveillance activities (CNAPS licence for the partner security company) and GDPR: informing site employees, minimising capture, limited retention of recordings. AlphaTango registration, height under 120 m, pilot trained in night thermal operations.
Frequently asked questions
Can a drone monitor the street outside my business?
No: drone image capture of public roads is reserved for the authorities (police, gendarmerie) under a strict legal framework. We only monitor the interior of your property, with the camera angled to exclude public space.
Can the drone fly at night for surveillance?
Yes, but only in the specific category with a suitable operational authorisation, which we hold. Thermal cameras make night detection far more effective than conventional CCTV.
Can the footage serve as evidence in case of intrusion?
Yes, if capture was lawful: flight over your own property, declared system, employees informed. Time-stamped recordings are then admissible and handed to law enforcement if charges are filed.
Can this service be flown anywhere in Saint-Brieuc?
Almost: Réserve naturelle nationale de la baie de Saint-Brieuc (survol à basse hauteur interdit); Aérodrome de Saint-Brieuc-Armor (LFRT). Depending on the exact location, the pilot picks the right framework (open or specific category) and files the required declarations — included in the quote.
