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.
