IGSR - 1000 Genomes Sample Data

The International Genome Sample Resource (IGSR) presents all the data it has on the 1000 Genomes samples through the 1000 Genomes FTP site{:target="_blank"} and the mirror site{:target="_blank"} hosted at the NCBI. Currently this FTP site contains the three main releases of the 1000 Genomes Project.

##1000 Genomes Data Access Tools

The FTP site{:target="_blank"} is accessible both over FTP and [HTTP]({{site.ebi_ftp| replace:'ftp://', 'http://'}}){:target="_blank"}. It is also accessible via two fast download tools, aspera and globus grid ftp.

###Aspera

The data is also via an Aspera server from both sites. To be able to use this service you need to download the Aspera connect software{:target="_blank"}. This provides both a browser plug in for downloading data and a bulk download client called ascp. An example command line to get a file using ascp looks like:

{% highlight bash %} ascp -i bin/aspera/etc/asperaweb_id_dsa.putty -Tr -Q -l 100M
-L- [email protected]:vol1/ftp/release/20100804/ALL.2of4intersection.20100804.genotypes.vcf.gz ./ {% endhighlight %}

The location of -i will depend on where the ascp program was installed. This key should not ask you for a password. IGSR data is freely available and should never request a password for download.

###Globus Grid FTP

The 1000 Genomes FTP site is available as an end point in the Globus Online system{:target="_blank"}. In order to access the data you need to sign up for an account with Globus via their signup page{:target="_blank"}. You must also install the Globus Connect Personal software{:target="_blank"} and setup a personal endpoint to download the data too.

The 1000 Genomes end point is one of several EMBL-EBI hosted end points and is called ebi#1000genomes. When you have setup your personal end point you should be able to start a transfer using their web front end.

The Globus website has support for setting up accounts{:target="_blank"} and installing the globus personal connect software{:target="_blank"}.
