Resumen
We report on the most complete spectral atlas of active galactic nuclei (AGN) in the near-infrared region (NIR) published to date. The main goal is to construct a homogeneous database at good S/N and spectral resolution allowing the study of the continuum and emission line properties of individual sources and the comparison of these properties among the different types of AGN. We identify the most important emission features detected and confirm the usefulness of the [Fe II]/Pabeta vs H_2/Brgamma diagram to separate emission line objects by their degree of nuclear activity. We found that the NIR offers valuable information for the broad and narrow line regions, adding important constraints to the 0 of the physical properties of the nuclear gas.
