For maps, summarise the main differences or changes. For a process, describe its broad course: where it starts and ends, or whether it repeats. Save individual features and stages for the details.

Suppose an empty site becomes a park with paths and a pond. Is that main change enough for the overview, without listing each addition?

That gives the main change for that example. The paths and pond can support it in the body. Another major change, if shown, may also belong in the overview.

For a flow chart, I'd check the arrows first. A final arrow returning to an earlier stage changes how you describe the overall process.
