What is a transect? Its mere use leaves the user oblivious to the intellectual effort expended by researchers. And since graduation we have looked for references about their origins and did not get it. This work tries to make a survey of the construction of the technique, as well as to use it in the studies of rainfall in the city of Rio de Janeiro, which has made data available on the Internet, by the Rio Alerta System, in order to analyze the influence of topography on the distribution of rainfall (1997-2016) and its impact on the Carioca population, often affected by episodic intense rainfall events, which lead to floods and landslides, with fatalities and material losses.Downloads
