Popis: Quantitative methods are an increasingly used instrument among historians due to the enormous possibilities they offer. From the Geographical Information System to the digitization of archival documents, researchers have managed to access information that was unthinkable until a few years ago. Starting from this basis, this article aims to analyze the possibilities that these methods offer for the historian of tourism in Spain. Specifically, a critical analysis is made of these sources, their use, the possibilities that exist, and the shortcomings that the researcher must still face.
