Research has been conducted on the possibility of using UAVs to control the execution of construction works by the authors of the article among other researchers. The technical parameters of the applied measurement instruments are of great significance. This paper presents a possibility for the optimal choice of unmanned aerial vehicles using the AHP method. The popularity of this method results not only from its effectiveness in solving complex decision problems, but also from its transparency and ease of application. The decision-making analysis adopts the criteria that are essential with regard to the supervision of construction works which they may support.
