Contribution of Python-based BERT software for landslide monitoring using Electrical Resistivity Tomography datasets. A case study in Tghat-Fez (Morocco).

ABSTRACT: The electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) technique was conducted for the geophysical survey of a landslide on the southern slope of Jbel Tghat, north of the city of Fez, Morocco. Nine electrical resistivity tomography profiles were implemented to: (a) characterize the geometry of the dipping zone; (b) characterize their internal structures; and (c) highlight the faulting zone between the marly deposits and the conglomerate formation. The measured data sets were processed using EarthImager™ 2D (Advanced Geosciences, Inc), and BERT (Boundless Electrical Resistivity Tomography) software packages that offer a simple workflow from data import to inversion and visualization, while offering full control over inversion parameters. Moreover, BERT software is a Python-based open-source inversion
