File Manager

+

Please do not close this window, it is necessary to get access to the files that you open below. If you close this window, the Genome Browser's IGV track loses access to the files.

+
+ +
+ +

Local Files

+

Click 'Chose Files' to open files from your local harddisk. For indexed formats both data and index files must be selected.

+

+ The Genome Browser webserver does not have access to any files on your + harddisk, since it is a website. Data of the files opened below is not + sent to UCSC, but it remains on your local computer. As far as we know, + it is OK if these files include identifying health information, since the data + does not leave your computer. If you make a session shortlink on the + Genome Browser, then these files cannot be loaded by the person that + opens the session link. + As soon as the window is closed, file access is lost and you must re-open the files in this window again. +

+ + +

+

Selected local files:

+

Local URL

+ Enter a local URL on your intranet to a track file to load. For indexed + formats the index file is assumed to be at the same location with an added + extension if not specified. It is OK if the UCSC webserver cannot access this file, + as all display is handled on your local computer. If this is a publicly accessible + URL and public data, it is usually easier to load the file as a 'custom track' or 'track hub'. + +
