Digital Terrain Models (DTM) are widely used in engineering, constituting the basis for deriving cartography that can be used in various hydrological studies, such as flood studies, and for generating contour lines and calculating earthworks, among others. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) can provide these products with better spatial and temporal resolution than other sensors, such as satellites. The quality of the DTMs developed with UAVs depends on the flight programming, the precision in measuring the Check Points (ChPs) and Ground Control Points (GCP) measurement, and the post-processing of the data and point filtering. This research analyzes the accuracy of the DTM's using the Agisoft Metashape photogrammetric software (private software), and the Cloud compare photogrammetric viewer (free); the GPCs were left on the edges of the study area to georeferenced the model and evaluate the quality of the generated product. The control points were measured with a dual-frequency Topcon Hyper GPS in RTK mode with an accuracy of 1.5 cm. Comparing the results with conventional topography, photogrammetric products with XYZ precision of 2 cm were obtained using a total station. These results indicate excellent precision, allowing its application in various studies and with less fieldwork than traditional methods.
