QAFI also addresses a need to transfer geologic knowledge to practitioners of seismic hazard and risk in Iberia by identifying and characterizing seismogenic fault-sources. QAFI is populated by the information freely provided by more than 40 Earth science researchers, storing to date a total of 262 records. In this article we describe the development and evolution of the database, as well as its internal architecture. Additionally, a first global analysis of the data is provided with a special focus on length and slip-rate fault parameters. Finally, the database completeness and the internal consistency of the data are discussed. Even though QAFI v.2.0 is the most current resource for calculating fault-related seismic hazard in Iberia, the database is still incomplete and requires further review.}, keywords = {Active fault, Iberia, Portugal, Quaternary, Seismic hazard, Spain}, issn = {1886-7995}, doi = {10.5209/rev\_JIGE.2012.v38.n1.39219}, url = {http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-84861912592\&partnerID=tZOtx3y1}, author = {Garc{\'\i}a-Mayordomo, J. and Insua-Ar{\'e}valo, J.M. and Mart{\'\i}nez-D{\'\i}az, J.J. and Jim{\'e}nez-D{\'\i}az, A. and Mart{\'\i}n-Banda, R. and Mart{\'\i}n-Alfageme, S. and {\'A}lvarez-G{\'o}mez, J.A. and Rodr{\'\i}guez-Peces, M. and P{\'e}rez-L{\'o}pez, R. and Rodr{\'\i}guez-Pascua, M.A. and Masana, E. and Perea, H. and Mart{\'\i}n-Gonz{\'a}lez, F. and Giner-Robles, J. and Nemser, E.S. and Cabral, J.} }
