Does anybody know a good, and easy to use, software to create flow maps?
I want to create flow maps for showing the flow of people between places (migration).
The software has to be compatible with Mac computers.
I have tried the plugin for QGIS, but it was designed for Windows.

There are a variety of different flow mapping software that work on Macs. Below are some links to pages where you can find more information about downloading these software:

The QGIS flow mapper plugin, although designed for Windows, does work on Mac. It has a few glitches but gets the job done.
