1/n: Mapping transnational cocaine trafficking flows is notoriously difficult: the data we rely on are fragmented, biased, and often incomplete.

[Phil @ScreenPhillip]

3/n: And, using Social Network Analysis across nine years of data, we: a. Extend earlier approaches to drug flow mapping b. Show how combining sources reduces blind spots in trafficking networks c. Highlight distortions caused by enforcement/reporting biases.
