GenGIS
GenGIS is a bioinformatics application that allows users to merge combine digital map data with information about biological sequences collected from the environment. GenGIS provides a 3D graphical interface in which the user can navigate and explore the data, as well as a Python interface that allows easy scripting of statistical analyses using the Rpy libraries.
We are in the process of writing documentation and squashing bugs in preparation for the first release of GenGIS. The basic framework of the site has been laid out, and updates will be posted as software and documentation become available.
