This paper presents the methodology used in the geometrical characterization of Yucatan churches. The main was determined the geometrical features of the typical profile that represent with the best accuracy the churches with canon vault built in the south of Mexico. The methodology was structure in two campaigns (1) Preliminary studies and (2) Statistical studies on the database. As a result, it seems that the Yucatan's churches were built totally in an intuitive way and they don´t have clear numerical relationships, nevertheless, considering that the geometry of the structures has to be known in details, since it is fundamental for the intervention projects and mathematical modelling; in this work is explain the statistical and comparative surveys carried out to achieve a geometrical model with sufficient accuracy to characterize the cannon vault churches of Yucatan. Additionally, a linear correlation between variables is proposed.
