Explain flowcharting and discuss the basic differences between event and commodity flow analysis

What will be an ideal response?


• The flowchart demonstrates a chain of events or activities over a period. Event flow analysis is usually conducted early in an investigation. Examples of flow analysis include charting a brief description of an event enclosed in a symbolic area such as a circle or rectangle. As different events are documented, they are connected by arrows to indicate the direction of the sequence. Commodity flow analysis charts the logical flow of such commodities as drugs, money, and illegal arms shipments. The structure of a commodity flowchart is generally the same as that of the event flowchart except that rather than descriptions of events being placed in circles or rectangles, persons or businesses are used.
