libraries for using data in the INSDC Sequence Read Archives (devel)

Much of the data submitted these days, for example in BAM, Illumina export.txt, and Complete Genomics formats, contain alignment information. With aligned data, NCBI uses Compression by Reference, which only stores the differences in base pairs between sequence data and the segment it aligns to. The process to restore original data, for example as FastQ, requires fast access to the reference sequences that the original data was aligned to. NCBI recommends that SRA users dedicate local disk space to store references downloaded from the NCBI SRA site. As of Fall 2014, the complete collection of these reference sequences is 66 GB. While it isn't usually necessary to download the entirety of the reference sequences, this should give you an idea of the scale of the storage requirement. By default, the Toolkit will download missing reference sequences on demand and cache them in the user's home directory. The location of this cache is configurable, as is whether the download is automatic or manual.

This is the development package.
