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.

Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) with ConceptDraw DIAGRAM
Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) serves for detailed description of structures and databases. An ERD represents a diagram made up mainly of rectangular blocks (for entities, or data) linked with relationships. The links between the blocks describe relations between these entities. There are three types of relationships: one-to-one,one-to-many, many-to-many.

Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD)
Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) solution extends ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software with templates, samples and libraries of vector stencils from drawing the ER-diagrams by Chen's and crow’s foot notations.
Entity Relationship Software
Entity Relationship Diagrams (ERD) illustrate the logical structure of databases.The vector graphic diagrams produced when using the ConceptDraw ERD solution can be used in whitepapers, presentations, datasheets, posters, or any technical materials.
It is convenient to design ER Diagrams using ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM extended with the Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) solution supports Chen's and Crow’s Foot notations that are often used to describe database structure.
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.
Data modeling with ConceptDraw DIAGRAM
Data modelling will help you to study and analyze business processes in your organization for optimization and increase of effectiveness and production.ORM Diagram
The vector stencils library ORM Diagrams from the solution Software Development contains specific ORM symbols for ConceptDraw DIAGRAM diagramming and vector drawing software.
