The electrical sounding is a geophysical technique used in this study to identify the geological and hydrogeological structures of the area. The objective is to map the catchment area of groundwater from resistivity data. For this, geoelectric maps are made at different depths of the basement, from resistivity values obtained after inversion of the sounding curves. Geoelectric cuts are compared to drillings data existing in the area. They do not always correspond. The differences appear in the
