Description

Sequencing coverage depth can be calculated quickly from BAM or CRAM files. Bioinformatics users install this tool when whole-genome, exome, or targeted sequencing projects need coverage summaries.

It processes genomic data, which may be sensitive. Protect sample files and interpret depth results with appropriate sequencing and study context.
