The City of Mexicali and its Valley are located within the San Andrés fault system, a geological fault system generated by the activity of the Pacific and North American tectonic plates, as boudary plates the principal Faults are Imperial Fault and Cerro Prieto Fault. We present our results related to the search o traces of geological faults using ground penetrating radar combined with Radon gas ( 222Rn) measurements in the Instituto Tecnológico de Mexcali inner the urban area and Mexicali Valley.As extension of this studies we apply this approach to the urban area of Morelia City in Mexico.
