How To Read Bam.Ebd, Bam.Ebi Format Dataset

Question

[Lerong]

I have the sequencing data divided into bam.ebd and bam.ebi format for each individual like:

HG00096.mapped.ILLUMINA.bwa.GBR.low_coverage.20101123.bam.ebd  
HG00096.mapped.ILLUMINA.bwa.GBR.low_coverage.20101123.bam.ebi
HG00102.mapped.SOLID.bfast.GBR.low_coverage.20101123.bam.ebd      
HG00102.mapped.SOLID.bfast.GBR.low_coverage.20101123.bam.ebi

Anyone know how to read and use these data for analysis?

Thanks,

seems like an output of a third party tool that processed those files

I believe (I might be wrong) but these files were produced from pileup in SNPTools and EBD are "Effective Base Depth" files. Kindly check the manual and Best Practises with SNPtools entry.
