Flow Maps





Flow maps are maps that represent a mix of maps and flow charts, hence the name. The show the movement of objects from one location to another. This particular flow map is showing Charles Minard's visualization of French wine imports around the world in 1864. As you can see from the map above, flow maps can be used to represent almost anything.
