UCSC TrackHub Visualization #16

Hey!

Another project we could work on is...TrackHub UCSC Visualization through Galaxy:

Track hubs are web-accessible directories of genomic data that can be viewed on the UCSC Genome Browser.

Track hubs can be displayed on genomes that UCSC directly supports, or on your own sequence. Hubs are a useful tool for visualizing a large number of genome-wide data sets. For example, a project that has produced several wiggle plots of data can use the hub utility to organize the tracks into composite and super-tracks, making it possible to show the data for a large collection of tissues and experimental conditions in a visually elegant way, similar to how the ENCODE native data tracks are displayed in the browser.

Here are a few screenshots about what we have available:

The project is already well advanced, and you can see the repository here: https://github.com/goeckslab/hub-archive-creator The TODO is here, but new ideas are more than welcome :)

You can also already play with it on this instance, under the G-OnRamp category.

Will be glad to work with you, guys!
