A linear space is a point-block incidence structure such that any two points are on a unique block and each block contains at least two points. The linear spaces with at most 11 points are classified, and the authors extend this result by showing that there are exactly 28,872,973 linear spaces with 12 points. They classify the linear spaces according to certain parameters, e.g. the number of lines containing a certain number of points or the number of such lines through a fixed point. Then they show that certain parameter sets are not realizable and for the remaining ones they list the number of isomorphism types of linear spaces. Complete lists are available on the Internet.
