Hi Dr. Pickrell,

May I ask you what is the unit of genetic position (cumulative) here? It seems that I cannot find this information in the repository and the related links.

After looking at some other genetic maps, my best guess is cM. Thanks!

Yes, cM is correct. Sorry, will add this to the README.
