Preserve context beyond one locus

These views answer where a window sits in a chromosome, where a signal sits in an assembly, how features wrap around a circular replicon, or where supplied samples sit on Earth.

Window in chromosomeIdeogramTrackA banded or bare whole chromosome with an explicit marker for the region shown below.Open reference → Multi-sequence assemblyGenomeTrackContigs placed end to end as named blocks so every neighbouring track can use one global scale.Open reference → Circular sequenceRingsFeatures, markers, signal and ruler rings around one sequence, with structural chords through the centre.Open guide → Supplied geographyMapLocations, categories, counts and explicit flows under equirectangular, Mercator or orthographic projection.Open guide →
