Company Performance Metrics
Blom UK has recently reached a milestone and celebrated our 90th year. Whilst being known under many different names, and having produced a variety of services, the basics have always been the same… experienced staff producing innovative, technical and high quality products.
Aerofilms was founded by Francis Willis in 1919 and were the first ever
commercial aerial photography company in the UK. Simmons Mapping was founded by Derek Simmons in 1965 and specialised in traditional land survey. In 1997 Aerofilms and Simmons Mapping merged to become Simmons Aerofilms Ltd. This merger helped create a company that could provide both aerial photography and survey and mapping services.
In 2005 Simmons Aerofilms was taken over by Blom ASA and became Blom Aerofilms. Since 2009 the company has solely been known as Blom.
