Flows Explorer

If the analysis was calculated properly and accepted on the user's end, opening it from your My reports list will load a results page.

TomTom O/D Analysis offers 5 different methods you can use to review the results. In this chapter we will focus on the last one - Flows Explorer.

Flows Explorer

This is an interactive report view that allows you to select more than one Origin, Via, and Destination contrary to the Map Flows.

Once you set your regions as origins, destinations, and vias, you will be able to view the relations between them in all possible ways.

To select multiple regions it is possible to use the region list on the left or hold the CTRL key and click on the regions on the map. Thanks to that you can see the start and the end regions, and multiple via regions where the trips travelled through and their trip percentage value.

Map displaying multiple origin regions, destination regions, and via regions highlighted in different colors with percentage values shown on regions representing trip distribution — An example combination of multiple region types in the Flows Explorer

In case you would like to see the number of trips instead of the percentages, you can check Absolute values in the upper right corner.

Upper right control panel showing checkbox toggles for Flows per km², Region names, and a slider for the lower limit in percent — Additional controls for the Flows Explorer result

Map showing regions with numeric trip counts displayed instead of percentages, with larger numbers indicating higher trip volumes — Results displayed in the form of **Absolute values** instead of percentages

Just like Map Flows, this view also allows you to check the Flows per km² values in the upper right corner:

Map displaying regions colored by gradient showing Flows per km² normalized values with legend indicating value ranges from low to high density — Distribution of trips shown in the form of flows per squared kilometers

The date and the time ranges can be changed in the bottom left corner of the map.
