It is sampling populations in a way that represents as much anthropological, linguistic and cultural diversity as possible, and thus includes many deeply divergent human populations that are not well represented in other datasets. SGDP emphasizes breadth of global representation and population history, whereas HGDP emphasizes continuity and comparability across major population groups. Not all iits data is public, so this track contains only 279 genomes. For details, see (Mallick et al, Nature 2016).

The Human Genome Diversity Project (HGDP) was launched in the early 1990s to study the genetic variation and evolutionary history of modern humans across global populations. Its goal was to document the full spectrum of human genetic diversity, particularly in indigenous and geographically isolated groups, to better understand population structure, migration, adaptation, and disease susceptibility.The project collected samples from ~1,000 individuals representing over 50 populations worldwide, including groups from Africa, Europe, Asia, Oceania, and the Americas. These data have become a foundational reference for population genetics and human evolution studies.
