This paper aims to present some of the applications that are currently using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) for monitoring activities in the civilian sector. The domains of use that are detailed in the article were chosen specifically because UAVs have a significant contribution to the increase of their productivity. Each of them is presented in order to highlight the high complexity of the monitoring activities involved, the disadvantages of the methods that are currently in use, as well as the benefits of using UAVs for these tasks. Furthermore, the methods that are most commonly used and have achieved the best results in the researches conducted in the field are mentioned and reviewed
