Abstract
Unlike most major European countries, Spain has not benefited from a linguistic atlas survey covering the whole continuum of varieties spoken in its territory. Just such an undertaking was projected from the beginning of the XX century, and the field surveys completed for the major Romance languages of the Iberian Peninsula, but most of the data has never been published. Although there have been regional atlases covering parts of the same territory, the data from the Atlas Lingüístico de la Península Ibérica constitute the only survey which covers the whole peninsula with a uniform questionnaire and methodology.
