iGenomicViewer: R package for visualisation of high dimension genomic data

Int J Bioinform Res Appl. 2010;6(6):584-93. doi: 10.1504/IJBRA.2010.038739.

Abstract

While the technologies for high dimensional data have been advancing, a lack of adequate visualisation tools to accommodate the results and inability to integrate multiple sources of data has emerged. The move towards multi-disciplinary work and collaborative research impresses the need for visualisation and analysis tools that are platform independent and customisable. iGenomicViewer through the use of customisable tool-tips that may include links and images, allows for a greater level of data integration for genomic data in a variety of formats. The iGenomicViewer is a freely available R software which allows users to generate interactive, platform-independent plots of genomic data.
