Digital Trace Analysis is a methodological approach within digital ethnography that systematically examines residual, observable data left by individuals' online activities to infer social practices, behaviors, and cultural patterns, distinguished from broader ethnographic methods by its focus on passive, artifact-based data rather than direct interaction or participant observation.
