Between 1993 and 2005, there have been numerous studies of soils in a wide sector of the Laureles neighborhood ( Medellin, Antioquia, Colombia ), which have aimed to identify the stratigraphy of the area and determine the bearing capacity of soil. Field tests and laboratory examinations realized during these explorations are resistance to the standard penetration (Standard Penetration Test) SPT and resistance laboratory tests to simple compression. This data was evaluated by a process of georeferencing for specific depths of 2.5, 5.0 and 7.5 meters for the SPT test and 2.30 and 3.30 meters for simple compression tests. Using geostatistical techniques (spatial interpolation) surfaces were modeled for the study area, in order to find information on locations where there have not been studies of soils
