There a few important factors, that nowadays, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) are used by wider community, and for cases and applications, that cannot be performed never before. Small UAVs, as a photogrammetry measurement tool provide flexibility, reliability, are safe and easy to use, can be deployed in minutes, initial measurement can be delivered yet on the field, and final accurate measurements are calculated in a very short time, even using online services. A numerous cases was studied on Department of Geodesy at Gdansk University of Technology using popular and commercial drones. All cases was analyzed using modern methods, and the results was compared to laser scans measurements. The paper presents results, including challenges and conclusions for each studied case, especially for geodesy, architecture, heritage conservation, civil engineering, police work, forensic analysis and natural science.
