This work aims at the detection of the contamination caused by a waste disposal area, through the electric geophysical methods of resistivity, induced electromagnetics. Field measurements had been carried out in Ribeirão Preto, São Paulo, Brazil, in a deactivated waste disposal area. The obtained data had been dealt with appropriate softwares that enabled the distinction of the anomalies which help the characterization of the environmental pollution problem.
