1. Network Mapping and Measuring Software

2. In FLOW is more than a… data base modeling tool network diagnostic visualization engine It is all of the above in one integrated tool!

3. MAPS  Networks can be shown at any level of detail  Maps can be color – coded [both nodes and links] according to data attributes  InFLOW has expert layout algorithms that allow you to unscramble the complexity in networks  Can map multiple relationships on any one map, or any sub-network from all available nodes & links

4. Just two clicks!

5. METRICS InFLOW not only maps complex networks but measures them also -- interactively! InFLOW uses standard social network measures to evaluate individuals, groups and the whole network  Node and Network centrality  Reach into Network  Cluster analysis  Small-World Networks  Structural Equivalence  External / Internal Ratio

6. DATA flows easily to & from InFLOW…  node and network data from Excel, Access or other *.csv sources  Run various downloaded data files through Excel and import them into InFlow  text and graphics to any Microsoft Office application and most word processors and presentation programs  network data to Java applet running in web browser  In addition, InFLOW has internal data entry via drawing or dialogs  Draw your network while reading sources or interviewing subject  People still use paper surveys… we have data-entry screens specifically for them

7. Export network data to Java applet on WWW
