Covert Rural Surveillance
There are times and situations when you cannot get close enough to the target to deploy a surveillance team or vehicle.
For many investigators the mere thought of carrying out a rural surveillance operation is quite chilling.This is mainly due to the lack of experience and limited skills. The surveillance techniques used in rural surveillance are far more specialized and require a lot of planning and preparation before surveillance is even attempted.
Rural surveillance is more akin to a military operation, operators must have specialized skills typical of most soldiers who have served as Snipers or in a Covert Observation Platoon. All our operators are aware of the inherent demands of this kind of operation.
Surveillance is conducted by a minimum of two specially trained ex-Military operatives using sophisticated equipment.They will conceal themselves into the area surrounding the target and remain hidden until they have gained the relevant video or photographic evidence.
This is particularly useful to Rural Organisations experiencing Fly Tipping, Diesel theft and Copper Theft problems.
Rural Surveillance
In rural locations the use of one man in a vehicle usually means the surveillance is very quickly compromised. The reason for this is that in many rural locations like here in Cornwall everyone knows everyone and every vehicle in the local area. Any strange vehicle immediately arouses interest even though it is a tourist hotspot.We know from an initial recce whether you will need to use a rural O.P. to either act as a trigger or a full blown surveillance operation. Once we have received instructions from a client we will conduct a thorough map recce to locate possible O.P's by assessing the lay of the land. If it is practical we will also conduct an onsite recce bearing in mind that you will likely be noticed and will have to possibly use a different vehicle from the recce to the operation
