Types of Flowchart - Overview

Process flowchart sample - Human resource management process

When designing a process or an instruction in clear way, you should consider creating a flowchart. A Process Flow Diagram is the method. You can avoid wasting a lot of time understanding complex concepts as they get clear with different diagrams.

How to Simplify Flow Charting

Types of Flowchart - Overview

This work flow chart sample was redesigned from the picture "Simulation for earthquake disaster assessment" from the article "Simulation Workflows".
[iaas.uni-stuttgart.de/ forschung/ projects/ simtech/ sim-workflows.php]
" This simulation was developed to have an in depth understanding of the destructions and the decisions to be made in various phases of crisis management (Source: Mahdi Hashemi and Ali A. Alesheikh (2010). "Developing an agent based simulation model for earthquakes in the context of SDI." GSDI 12 World Conference. 19 – 22 October 2010. Singapour). The simulation process contains following major steps:
(1) All spatial information including satellite images (before and after the earthquake) and topographic/ cadastral maps of the area are mosaicked and georeferenced. The parts of the city that contain various levels of destructions are selected. Three types of features namely buildings, roads and recreational areas are classified and extracted from the satellite images.
(2) The governing factors of destructions are identified; a mathematical model that integrates the factors is constructed.
(3) The simulation is constructed for various parameter values (different earthquake strength, time elapses, etc.)" [iaas.uni-stuttgart.de/ forschung/ projects/ simtech/ sim-workflows.php]
The example "Workflow diagram - Earthquake disaster assessment" was drawn using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with the Workflow Diagrams solution from the Business Processes area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

ConceptDraw Arrows10 Technology

Types of Flowchart - Overview

This arrow ring chart sample was created on the base of the figure illustrating the webpage "National Preparedness Cycle. Plan" from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) website. "Planning makes it possible to manage the entire life cycle of a potential crisis. Strategic and operational planning establishes priorities, identifies expected levels of performance and capability requirements, provides the standard for assessing capabilities and helps stakeholders learn their roles. The planning elements identify what an organization’s Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) or Emergency Operations Plans (EOPs) should include for ensuring that contingencies are in place for delivering the capability during a large-scale disaster." [fema.gov/ plan]
The arrow ring chart example "National Preparedness Cycle" was created using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with the Target and Circular Diagrams solution from the Marketing area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

Emergency Plan

Fire emergency plan need to be in every building on each floor. The evacuation plan preliminary designed in ConceptDraw PRO software will help employees or family members when natural disasters, fires, hazardous leaks and other disaster events happen. Start drawing emergency blueprint from floor bounds, then put the inner walls and doors, and finally use arrows to show evacuation directions to fire exits.

This wheel diagram sample illustrates the emergency preparedness training and exercise processes. It was designed on the base of the diagram on the webpage "Public Health Preparedness Training and Exercise" from the FloridaHealth website of the Florida Department of Health. [floridahealth.gov/ programs-and-services/ emergency-preparedness-and-response/ training-exercise/ ]
"Emergency Preparedness is the discipline of dealing with and avoiding both natural and manmade disasters. It involves mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery in order to lessen the impact of disasters. Emergency management requires a partnership among all levels of government (local, State, and Federal) and the private sector (business and industry, voluntary organizations, and the public). Successful preparedness requires detailed planning and cooperation among each sector." [Emergency Preparedness. Wikipedia]

IDEF0 Diagrams

IDEF0 Diagrams visualize system models using the Integration Definition for Function Modeling (IDEF) methodology. Use them for analysis, development and integration of information and software systems, and business process modelling.

Cross-Functional Flowcharts

Cross-functional flowcharts are powerful and useful tool for visualizing and analyzing complex business processes which requires involvement of multiple people, teams or even departments. They let clearly represent a sequence of the process steps, the order of operations, relationships between processes and responsible functional units (such as departments or positions).
