Overlaying two thematic layers to look for a relationship is most misleading when

  • A.the layers were compiled in different years
  • B.the two use different areal units
  • C.the two are printed in different hues
  • D.one layer has more classes than the other

Answer: B

Coincidence between patterns drawn on different sets of boundaries can be an artefact of the units rather than a relationship in the data. This is the modifiable areal unit problem appearing in a comparison rather than in a single map.
