Explanation

An Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD) is the standard tool for creating detailed, logical, graphical representations showing entities (objects), their associations (relationships), and the data elements (attributes) that describe them. Logical models focus on structure but may omit graphical representation, data flow diagrams show information movement, and data trees are hierarchical structures not designed for this purpose.
