Human Genomic Variation Archive (HGVA) is an open access genomic variation resource that integrates all variants from key world-wide reference projects, but also added-value information such as basic variant annotation, population frequencies, protein effect predictions, variant-associated phenotype, etc.

HGVA is available at http://bioinfodev.hpc.cam.ac.uk/web-apps/hgva


HGVA currently hosts about 400GB of data from 13 different studies describing more than 300 million unique variants. HGVA is not a mere data archive, but a big data provider that enables users to efficiently query, filter and retrieve relevant information from its knowledge-base, either from a visual web-based application or programmatically using RESTful web services.

Main Features

  • Most important high-quality variant studies normalised and integrated in just one server database
  • Rich variant annotation performed
  • Population frequencies calculated
  • Interactive web-based data mining tool based on IVA
