Industry and sensitive sites
Perimeter patrols, thermal observation and alert verification for industrial and Seveso sites, subject to their access procedures.
PIM Consult / Autonomous surveillance
Autonomous surveillance
by drone in Belgium.
PIM Consult installs and operates drone-in-a-box systems: a DJI Dock 3, a Matrice 4TD drone and remote supervision. Your patrols are automated, with a remote pilot able to take control. You receive imagery and reports without deploying a pilot on site.

A patrol, from trigger to report.
Trigger
A mission starts from a schedule, a perimeter alarm or a request from your security control room. The route and operating conditions are defined in advance.
Observe and verify
The drone reaches the area concerned. The zoom and thermal camera relay the situation to your teams and the supervising remote pilot.
Return and document
The drone returns to its dock to recharge. Timestamped recordings and flight reports remain available to your team.
The sites we support.
Construction and logistics
Monitoring depots, equipment and storage areas. Missions adapted to construction phases and operating hours.
Networks and infrastructure
Patrols along sensitive sections of railway and energy networks, coordinated with the infrastructure manager.
Public safety and emergency response
An aerial view to prepare interventions and support ground teams within the authorised operational framework.
What your teams receive.
The data scope is agreed before deployment: video feeds to the security control room, timestamped imagery, anomaly reports and flight logs. Integration with your alarm system is defined during the site assessment.
FlightHub 2 supports mission planning and supervision. An on-premises architecture can be assessed to host data on your own infrastructure in Belgium. Hosting, access and data flows are defined in the contract.
Buy the system or entrust us with operations.
Your remote pilots operate the system.
PIM sizes and installs the system, trains your teams and supports authorisation applications. Maintenance can be covered by a dedicated contract.
PIM supervises your missions.
The contract combines feasibility assessment, installation, authorisation applications, supervision and maintenance. The budget depends on the sites, frequency and deliverables.
Understand the DaaS modelWhat determines deployment.
Every project starts with a feasibility assessment: airspace, surroundings, connections, mission scenarios and risk management. PIM prepares the regulatory procedures suited to the operation, including SORA and BVLOS applications when required.
System availability does not mean continuous flight. Wind, temperature, precipitation, charging and authorisations determine operating windows. A patrol is postponed when the agreed limits are not met.
Frequently asked questions.
What is a drone-in-a-box?
A system comprising a docking station, a drone and planning software. The drone takes off, completes a mission and returns to recharge. A remote pilot supervises operations.
Who pilots the drone during patrols?
Routes are automated and validated in advance. The supervising remote pilot remains responsible for the operation and can take control. In the operated service, PIM provides this supervision.
What happens in bad weather?
The equipment and operational scenario limits determine whether a mission can proceed. If conditions exceed those limits, the patrol is postponed and the event logged.
How much does autonomous surveillance cost?
The price depends on the scope, number of docks, sensors, authorisations and deliverables. PIM offers supported purchase or a Dock-as-a-Service subscription following a site assessment.
