Abstract

In this paper, starting a discussion about methodological procedures of Geolinguistics in Brazil, we present a reflection on the formation of a field research team and its importance for research of this kind. We therefore identify the methodology adopted by nine Brazilian State atlases produced from 1963 to 2008, in regard to the composition of their teams of field researchers/inquirers. Finally, we analyse the composition of the team of the Brazil Linguistic Atlas Project, and compare it with the teams of the State atlases, whereby we enhance both their convergent and divergent aspects.
