The research is focused on the sedimentological and topographic characterization of the stretches of sedimentary fill in the valley of the Upper Piancó river basin, allowing the understanding of the genesis and the sedimentological dynamic of the deposits, as well as their potentiality to storage water. In order to reach the proposed objective of this research, granulometric and hydrodynamic analyzes of the deposits in different alluvial stretches were realized, based on the methodological proposal of Gale & Hoare, using the Shepard and Pejrup diagram through Sysgran 3.0 software. Thus, of the six stretches addressed in this article, it is possible to highlight the stretches of alluvial deposits with predominance of coarse grains (gravel and sand) and stretches with 90% of fine grains (silt and clay). These granular variations favor the formation of alluvial aquifers with diverse characteristics, which may influence the processes of infiltration, permeability and recharge of alluvial aquifers. In this way, it can be understood that the deposition process in the analyzed alluvial stretches is influenced by several particularities and physical characteristics of the environment.
