{jcomments on}In this tutorial, you will learn the concept of ecological fallacy. As a GIS analyst, you must be aware of ecological fallacy so you don’t make incorrect assumptions about your results.

Ecological fallacy occurs when an erroneous conclusion has been made about the individuals of an area based on the aggregate statistics of the area. In other words, it is a mistake when a GIS analyst assumes that statistics found in aggregate data will also be found amongst individuals within that area.
