The Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) technology has gained great attention in recent years. It is viewed as a low-cost alternative for local large scale aerial mapping and other applications requiring the modeling of a relative small area only. In this paper we present the eBeeX UAV from SenseFly used in acquisition of aerial images and the Pix4DMapper software for data processing for generating a 3D model of a hotel from Spain. The data used in this project are available on https://www.sensefly.com/education/datasets/. Data management in cases where the number of images is high is also very important. The use of UAVs is also advantageous because it may be used for tasks requiring quick response, including in the case of the inspection and monitoring of buildings. It is demonstrated that the UAV system for low altitude aerial photogrammetry can be used in the construction of 3D building production, and the technology solution in this paper offers a new, fast and technical plan for the 3D expression of the city landscape, fine modeling and visualization.
