Description :
The drainage network analysis, based on description and interpretation of drainage anomalies and frequency, allow to distinguish: 1) subhomogenouus drainage areas which correspond to areas bearing consistent geological characteristics, and 2) drainage anomalies. The results have been checked in the field and compared with the tectonic features in the mountainous areas. The extension of these structures could then be traced confidently further towards the flat lowlands.
