this new technology, a study of academic productions was carried out at the level of undergraduate to graduate courses in civil engineering. It has been sought to understand whether academic research is incorporating this instrument in its work and in which specific activities of the construction sector the vants have been used. This study adopted the Proknow-C methodology, evaluating the following bibliometric indicators: year, author, reference, subject, type of advantage and coupled sensor, geographic location and area of application. Academic papers published in the digital repositories of Brazilian Universities that have postgraduate programs in civil engineering with scores higher than 4 by CAPES were surveyed, as well as articles published in the annals of the last three CBPAT. As search criteria, the following keywords were used: UAV, drone and UAV. In total, 28 surveys were surveyed, 57% of which were published in the years 2019 and 2020. The South region, followed by the Northeast and Southeast regions, are the ones that stood out the most in the number of works developed. In addition, the area of structures was the one that most appeared in the bibliographic bases, and one of the greatest potentialities pointed out was the facilitation of routine inspections. Finally, it is concluded that the number of publications until 2018 was very small, but it was noticed that from 2019 the number of papers points to an awakening of the interest of the academy for seeking theoretical basis in the use of UAV technology in engineering civil.
