Abstract :Historical artifacts are in danger all over the world as they are being damaged continuously. In order to transfer them to future generations and restore them, we need to create digital products of them. The developments in remote sensing allow us to model objects in computer environment. In this study, a cultural heritage located in Mersin was modelled in 3D using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Circular mission plan in the mobile phone application was preferred. Overlapping pictures were aligned. Digital surface model, orthophoto and 3D model of Ucayak Ruins have been created. Aerial photogrammetry allows us to create digital products in a short time. The obtained model will be used in tourism advertisements.Keywords : Cultural heritage, UAV, 3D Model, Photogrammetry, Circular mission plan
