How to get bi-allele genotype data from 1000 genome project for African population

Question

[AHW]

I am trying to get bi-allele genotype data from the 1000 genome project for the African populations. It would be great if anyone can take me to the link.

If you follow steps #1 and #2 here, then you will have all of the information that you require: Produce PCA bi-plot for 1000 Genomes Phase III - Version 2

Note that the files are large and are split by chromosome.

Once you have downloaded everything, my recommendation would be to obtain the IDs of the African samples from the downloaded PED file, and then filter each chromosome BCF for just these samples.

Also note that these are GRCh37 co-ordinates.

Thank you so much for your comments. I got the data for the specific African populations and my data looks like

 CHROM       POS         ID REF ALT QUAL FILTER                                                                                                                                                                        INFO HG02943 HG03100 NA19023 HG03078 HG03085 HG02464 HG02574

NS=2504 shows the sample number, how can I get the data for all these individuals.
