[Okehampton, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/okehampton): A drone search out of Okehampton, where the streets stop and open Dartmoor starts within a few hundred metres, up towards Yes Tor and High Willhays. - [Tavistock, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/tavistock): A drone search out of Tavistock, where wooded Tamar valley falls away west and open Dartmoor rises immediately east, two different kinds of ground either side of town. - [Ivybridge, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/ivybridge): A drone search out of Ivybridge, where housing estates back directly onto the open southern edge of Dartmoor, so a dog can be on the moor within minutes of bolting from a garden. - [Ottery St Mary, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/ottery-st-mary): A drone search out of Ottery St Mary, where gently rolling Otter valley farmland holds mist and damp long into the morning, ideal thermal ground once the light is right. - [Honiton, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/honiton): A drone search out of Honiton, a long town squeezed along the Otter valley with the Blackdown Hills rising steeply behind it, where fog can decide when a search flies. - [Axminster, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/axminster): A drone search out of Axminster, a hilltop town where the ground drops away to the Axe valley on three sides, so the direction a dog has gone can be almost any way at all. - [Cullompton, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/cullompton): A drone search out of Cullompton, flat Culm valley farmland split by the M5, where the motorway itself is the first thing a search has to think about. - [Tiverton, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/tiverton): A drone search out of Tiverton, where steep streets fall to the meeting of the Exe and Lowman, and the Grand Western Canal towpath gives a dog an obvious, easy route out of town. - [Crediton, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/crediton): A drone search out of Crediton, surrounded by some of the most productive farmland in Devon, big hedged fields and working farms in every direction from the Creedy valley. - [Newton Abbot, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/newton-abbot): A drone search out of Newton Abbot, on flat floodplain where the Teign turns tidal, ringed by hills, with the racecourse and Stover Country Park two very different spaces close by. - [Exmouth, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/exmouth): A drone search out of Exmouth, two miles of open seafront and dunes at Sandy Bay against cliffs at Orcombe Point, in some of the most exposed, salt-laden wind in the whole network. - [Budleigh Salterton, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/budleigh-salterton): A drone search out of Budleigh Salterton, where reed beds along the Otter Estuary sit beside wooded slopes rising sharply behind the high street, two different kinds of cover. - [Sidmouth, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/sidmouth): A drone search out of Sidmouth, hemmed in by Peak Hill and Salcombe Hill, both open access land, with a valley that funnels wind hard enough to decide whether a flight goes ahead. - [Teignmouth, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/teignmouth): A drone search out of Teignmouth, with the Ness headland and the Teign estuary on one side and an unusual easterly wind exposure that can catch a search out on the other. - [Dawlish, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/dawlish): A drone search out of Dawlish, where cliff-top bungalow estates meet the open grass and dune scrub of Dawlish Warren, some of the most storm-exposed ground on the South Devon coast. - [Ilfracombe, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/ilfracombe): A drone search out of Ilfracombe, wedged between steep hills and high cliffs on the north Devon coast, with Hillsborough and Capstone Hill giving open ground right beside the harbour. - [Topsham, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/topsham): A drone search out of Topsham, built right up against the Exe estuary with salt marsh and mudflats on three sides, where tide timing notably decides how a search is run. - [Seaton, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/seaton): A drone search out of Seaton, with open Axe estuary marshes to the east and the dense, ancient Undercliff woodland to the west, two of the most different search grounds here. - [Kingsbridge, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/kingsbridge): A drone search out of Kingsbridge, at the head of a tidal creek system spreading south through the South Hams, where the water's edge branches further than a search on foot can cover. - [Totnes, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/totnes): A drone search out of Totnes, a steep hill town at the tidal limit of the Dart, with the wooded Dartington Hall estate close by, an obvious place for a frightened dog to hide. - [Bideford, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/bideford): A drone search out of Bideford, on both banks of the Torridge, with the wide open common of Northam Burrows nearby giving some of the best clear ground on the North Devon coast. - [Exeter, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/exeter): A drone search out of Exeter, a city where a missing dog is more likely to have bolted into a park, along the river or onto an industrial estate edge than out into open countryside. - [Plymouth, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/plymouth): A drone search out of Plymouth, a hilly naval city where the open green of the Hoe sits close against steep streets that fall straight to the water on more than one side. - [Barnstaple, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/barnstaple): A drone search out of Barnstaple, North Devon's main town, where the Tarka Trail and steep wooded slopes towards Exmoor mean the countryside starts almost as soon as the streets end. - [Torquay, Devon](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/areas/torquay): A drone search out of Torquay, built across seven limestone hills, where a dog can run steeply downhill towards the harbour or uphill onto open clifftop grass at Babbacombe. ## What is on the record - CAA registered: Operator ID and Flyer ID held, plus the A2 Certificate of Competency, which is what allows closer, faster operation near buildings, hedges and people than the basic category allows. - Radiometric thermal: A DJI Mavic 2 Enterprise Advanced carrying a 640 by 512 thermal camera. This is the aircraft that goes up first at dawn, dusk and after dark, when a warm body shows against cooling ground. - 100 megapixel daylight camera: A DJI Mavic 4 Pro with a Hasselblad camera and 6K video, for wide daylight coverage of open ground at a resolution that holds up when a distant shape needs checking properly. - Insured with Coverdrone: Full commercial cover for the operation. The certificate is available on request, without anyone having to chase for it. ## Contact - Phone: 07460 040098 - Email: info@exeterdronesurveys.co.uk - Enquiry form: https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/contact - Based in Exeter, covering Devon and the South West ## Optional - [Full text version](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/llms-full.txt): every service, town and question on this site as markdown. - [Sitemap](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/sitemap.xml) - [Privacy](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/privacy) - [Terms](https://missing-dog-search.co.uk/terms)
