Raw Normal View History

As of the 3.0 release of SMRTanalysis, PacBio is embracing the industry
standard BAM format for (both aligned and unaligned) basecall data files. We
have also formulated a BAM companion file format (bam.pbi) enabling fast access
to a richer set of per-read information as well as compatibility for software
built around the legacy cmp.h5 format.
The pbbam software package provides components to create, query, & edit PacBio
BAM files and associated indices. These components include a core C++ library,
bindings for additional languages, and command-line utilities.
