AREAS SERVED
San Francisco, Bay Area
Aerial video in San Francisco is never as simple as launching a drone and pressing record. The city sits under Class B airspace on the approach to SFO, wraps around federal park land, and holds standing restrictions over stadiums, bridges and the waterfront.
Argus HD flies from our studio at 432 North Canal St in South San Francisco, minutes from SFO and a short drive from the Embarcadero, Mission Bay and downtown. We plan the airspace, file the authorizations, carry the coverage the city asks for, and put a licensed pilot and a visual observer on site.
The result is footage that opens a brand film, sells a building or gives a conference recap the scale it deserves. Your team stays focused on the event. We handle everything above it.
