One of the greatest challenges of any genetic analysis project is the seemingly endless formatting, manipulation, and editing of data that takes place in order to properly analyze it. This is significantly compounded when the project involves whole genome data with millions to billions of data points. SNP & Variation Suite 7 (SVS7) eliminates much of this hassle with streamlined data import of virtually any file format, as well as real-time spreadsheet manipulation and editing on a grand scale.

Because data comes in all sizes, formats, and orientations, no single workflow can encompass every scenario. This tutorial, therefore, seeks to lead you through a typical workflow of importing your pedigree data (if applicable), phenotype data, genetic data, and marker map data separately, and then merging them together in a single spreadsheet for analysis as illustrated in the steps below.
