Sumario:Geotechnical investigations of landslides for future mitigation are a complex task. To obtain relevant information, various geophysical methods are used, with varying degrees of success. The geoelectrical scanning method, also known as Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) has been successfully applied in several locations in Serbia in the las three decades. The geoelectrical scanning method was used during investigations of landslides: Umka, Lukovska banja, Tara, and Trandžament, while both geoelectrical scanning and Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) were utilized at the Trandžament landslide. The achieved results from both methods are mutually correlated at the Trandžament landslide. Correlation of GPR data with geoelectrical scanning data was only possible since there were no nearsurface low resistivity zones in the Trandžament landslide body. Otherwise, electromagnetic signal attenuation would be high in the presence of near-surface low resistivity zones, and a quality signal would be impossible to detect at the receiving antenna.
