In this paper we construct different families of orbit codes in the vector spaces of the symmetric bilinear forms, quadratic forms and Hermitian forms on an $ n $-dimensional vector space over the finite field $ {\mathbb F_{q}} $. All these codes admit the general linear group $ {{{{\rm{GL}}}}}(n,q) $ as a transitive automorphism group.

Keywords: Orbit code, Constant dimension code, Subspace code.
