This paper presents the analysis of shaded images from NASA's Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) for the municipality of Bagé / RS, where it is possible to evidence the influence of geological structures in the distribution of relief and geomorphological units, in a study aimed at groundwater prospecting. Negative lineaments were identified, which have two preferred directions of morphostructures: NW and NE. These preferred directions are related to the lithologies occurring in the region and related to the recharge system of the Aquifer System Embasamento Cristalino II. The occurrence of these two systems of morphostructures is related to the different lithologies, being responsible for the morphology of Bagé.
