Hilbert curve creation software tools | Genome visualization

Hilbert curves can be used to effectively visualize genomic data, because they can provide a global overview of genome-scale datasets while still revealing the spatial distribution of features at high resolution (Anders, 2009). Hilbert curve visualization has been utilized to compare the sequence difference between human and other primates (Wong, 2014), to show the spatial organization of different chromatin states (Kharchenko et al., 2011), and to investigate the genome-wide distribution of histone modifications (Anders 2009, Henry et al., 2012).
