The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It may thus be considered a hybrid of a map and a flow diagram.
- The movement being mapped may be that of anything, including people, highway traffic, trade goods, water, ideas, telecommunications data, etc. The wide variety of moving material, and the variety of geographic networks through they move, has led to many different design strategies.
- Some cartographers have expanded this term to any thematic map of a linear network, while others restrict its use to maps that specifically show movement of some kind.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Flow map article was read about 6,600 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 63 and blocks with 62: each hit it takes is cut by 25 %.
