This paper presents a sonographic mapping of an area of the Brazilian continental shelf adjacent to Touros city-RN, NE Brazil. Data were acquired in lines parallel to the coast line, with a total area of 58 km². The equipment used was Side Scan Sonar 272 -TD, operated both with frequency of 100 kHz. As a result was possible to correlate clearly the sonar data with the satellite image and identify different reflection patterns.
