Difference between Entity Relationship Diagrams and Object Relationship Diagram
Best answer by Micah
Hi Dickson thanks for posting in the Lucid Community and apologies for the delayed response over the Thanksgiving weekend. I believe that "object relationship diagram" and "entity relationship diagram" are essentially interchangeable with "entity" referring to any people objects events or concepts that are related to each other. I've included a screenshot of an example ERD you might create in Lucidchart below:
This What Is an Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD)? article from the Lucidchart blog and the Entity Relationship Diagram article from the Lucidchart Help Center might serve as helpful starting points for creating one of your own! Please let me know if you have any specific questions about the tool in Lucidchart and I'd be glad to continue helping.
a diagrammatic explanation will be more helpful
