Asymmetric Pileup (ASP)
Asymmetric Pileup (ASP) is a new pileup file format that we created to replace GLF.
ASP File Format
ASP files are binary files consisting of 4 types of records. Every record starts with a 1-byte field that indicates the type.
| Type Value | Record Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 0 | Empty | indicates there are no bases for this position. |
| 1 | Position Only | specifies the chromsome id/0-based position of the next record (other records do not contain a position). |
| 2 | Reference Only | indicates that all bases at this position match the reference and provides the number of bases, GLH, and GLA. |
| 3 | Detailed | indicates that not all bases at this position match the reference and provides the number of bases, the bases, the qualities, the cycles, the strands, and the MQs. |
