 Majority of drone operations are one (or more) of the following ones:
   * Video registration (i.e. weddings filming);

   * SAR (Search and Rescue) - searching for lost and castaways, delivery of the elementary rescue resources (i.e. AED, medicaments, bandage, etc.);

+  * Surveillance: guarding (i.e. industrial complex monitoring for unauthorised entry), disaster-related (i.e. aerial observations after earthquake or flood), environment-related (i.e. air pollution monitoring), natural resources-related (i.e. Earth's magnetic field measurements to detect the anomaly and estimate natural resources like gas, oil, rocks);

+  * Construction (i.e. spray wall painting);
+  * Surveying (i.e. photogrammetry and surface analysis to create 3D surface models, like in Google Maps / Earth);
+  * Racing and competition;
+In general, a variety of UAV hardware constructions suits many categories, but each category presents specific requirements regarding airframe type, flight duration, equipment, methods of control and flight mode.
+It is also notifiable, that applications differ by flight modes, in particular: autonomy level, operators' qualification understood as VLOS/BVLOS/FPV certification and most of all: operator skills.
