ERD Symbols and Meanings
Crow's foot notation is used in Barker's Notation, Structured Systems Analysis and Design Method (SSADM) and information engineering. Crow's foot diagrams represent entities as boxes, and relationships as lines between the boxes. Different shapes at the ends of these lines represent the cardinality of the relationship.The Chen's ERD notation is still used and is considered to present a more detailed way of representing entities and relationships.
To create an ERD, software engineers mainly turn to dedicated drawing software, which contain the full notation resources for their specific database design - ERD symbols and meanings. CS Odessa has released an all-inclusive Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) solution for their powerful drawing program, ConceptDraw DIAGRAM.
Martin ERD Diagram
The vector stencils library Crow's Foot Notation from the solution Entity-Relationship Diagrams (ERD) contains specific symbols of the Crow's foot notation such as relationship symbols and entity symbols for ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software. The Entity-Relationship Diagrams (ERD) solution is contained in the Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.Entity Relationship Diagram Symbols
Creating an entity-relationship (ER) model is to visually represent the structure of a business database, where data equates to entities (or objects) that are linked by defined relationships expressing dependencies and requirements. By nature it is an abstract visualization, the first step in the design process towards creating a logical and functional database.ERD symbols used for professional ERD drawing are collected in libraries from the Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) solution for ConceptDraw DIAGRAM.
Software and Database Design with ConceptDraw DIAGRAM
ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is a perfect tool for designing and planning tasks such as:UML diagramming; designing and prototyping Graphical User Interface (GUI); flowcharts, data flow diagrams; database and ERD diagramming (Chen ERD, Database Model diagram, Express-G, Martin ERD, ORM Diagrams and more); SSADM diagrams, Booch diagrams, Nassi-Shneiderman diagrams with special flowchart symbols.
Components of ER Diagram
ConceptDraw gives the ability to draw ER diagram (ERD) for visual describing database using the entity relationship symbols, work flow shapes, entity relationship stencils. Entity-Relationship model making possibility to describe a database using the components of ER Diagram in which in the tables data can be the point to data in other tables - for instance, your entry in the database could point to several entries.E-R Diagrams
Complexity of databases increases day by day, due to this the Entity relationship models and E-R diagrams become more and more popular, and now are an important part of database design. E-R diagrams created at ConceptDraw DIAGRAM allow visually and graphically represent structure and design of databases.Data Flow Diagram
Data flow diagram (DFD) is the part of the SSADM method (Structured Systems Analysis and Design Methodology), intended for analysis and information systems projection. Data flow diagrams are intended for graphical representation of data flows in the information system and for analysis of data processing during the structural projection. Data flow diagram often used in connection with human process and can be displayed as workflow diagram. The critical Process Flow Diagram is another flowchart technique for designing data flow in connection with organizational processes. The critical Process flow diagram may use different range of symbols than a classic workflow diagram.ER Diagram Programs for Mac
ConceptDraw DIAGRAM compatible Mac OS X software extended with powerful Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) Solution from the Software Development Area for ConceptDraw Solution Park is one of the famous ER Diagram Programs for Mac. It gives the perfect ability to draw ER diagrams for visually describing databases with Chen's and Crow's Foot notation icons.Data Modeling Diagram
The vector stencils library Activity diagrams from the solution Rapid UML contains specific data modeling symbols for ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software. The Rapid UML solution is contained in the Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.DFD Library System
Use the Data Flow Diagrams solution from the Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park to draw your own context-level DFDs using the ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software.Block Diagram
The vector stencils libraries: Block Diagrams, Blocks with Perspective, Callouts, Connectors, Raised Blocks from the solution Block Diagrams contain specific block diagram symbols such as arrows, input/output symbols, start/end symbols, processing symbols, conditional symbols, commenting symbols, callouts, connectors, etc. for ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software. The Block Diagrams solution is contained in a "Diagrams" area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.Use the libraries from the Block Diagrams solution to draw block diagrams for your business documents, presentations and websites in a few minutes.
Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD)
An Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) is a visual presentation of entities and relationships. That type of diagrams is often used in the semi-structured or unstructured data in databases and information systems. At first glance ERD is similar to a flowch
School and Training Plans
School and Training Plans solution enhances ConceptDraw DIAGRAM functionality with extensive drawing tools, numerous samples and examples, templates and libraries of classroom design elements for quick and professional drawing the School and Training plans, School Floor plans, Classroom Layout, Classroom Seating chart, Lecture Room plans of any complexity. Each offered classroom seating chart template is a real help for builders, designers, engineers, constructors, as well as teaching personnel and other teaching-related people in drawing Classroom Seating charts and Training Room layouts with ConceptDraw DIAGRAM classroom seating chart maker.
Database Design
ConceptDraw DIAGRAM extended with IDEF Business Process Diagrams solution from the Business Processes area of ConceptDraw Solution Park is an ideal software for effective database design and drawing IDEF diagrams visually representing all steps of database design process.SYSML
The SysML solution helps to present diagrams using Systems Modeling Language; a perfect tool for system engineering.
Software Diagrams
Design and document development of projects using a wide range of pre-drawn shapes and smart connectors. Develop visualization solutions with the help of the built-in scripting language.ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is a perfect tool for Designing and planning tasks; Developing Visualization Solutions; Project Planning (Gantt Charts, Timelines, Project Schedules).
Gant Chart in Project Management
Gant Chart is a graphical representation of tasks as segments on a time scale. It helps plan and monitor project development or resource allocation. The horizontal axis is a time scale, expressed either in absolute or relative time.Examples of Flowcharts, Org Charts and More
ConceptDraw examples covers a broad spectrum of business graphics categories. We separated all the graphic documents on application areas and had produced multiple solutions for each of them. ConceptDraw provides a wide variety of examples such as flowcharts, organizational charts, business charts, UML diagrams, database and ERD, directional map, network diagrams and lots more. Each solution accommodates 10+ examples that shows specific application cases of a diagram. ConceptDraw STORE is an application for downloading solutions with examples, templates and stencil libraries. Please choose any examples you are interested in, alternatively download them for free; you will need to install ConceptDraw to view them. As you will see, ConceptDraw is very powerful, you can use more than 10000 symbols, examples, and many pre-drawn templates, to create your own spectacular flowcharts, business diagrams, network diagrams and lots more, effortlessly, and in no time at all.UML Block Diagram
Use Case Diagram Taxi Service UML. This sample was created in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software using the UML Use Case Diagram library of the Rapid UML Solution from the Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.This sample shows the work of the taxi service and is used by taxi stations, by airports, in the tourism field and delivery service.
