A method for controlling an unmanned flying object (UAV) that is used to detect and measure objects in a specified region, where a largely obstacle-free flyover zone is determined for the region to be detected and measured, where the unmanned flying object takes overview measurements of the region utilizing suitable sensors and recording technology in the flyover zone, wherein a three-dimensional digital surface model of the region is ascertained together with the objects located therein based on the overview measurements, and based on the three-dimensional digital surface model, a sequence of positions for detailed measurements and an obstacle-free flight path are ascertained for an unmanned model aircraft for assuming the sequence of positions and are used as the basis for control of the unmanned model aircraft.
