HapMap Phase I
STAGE_PERIOD
2003–2005
DESCRIPTION
International HapMap Project first data release: ~1 million SNPs in CEU, YRI, and JPT+CHB; produced the first genome-wide LD and recombination maps and drove early GWAS SNP selection and imputation panels.
URL
HapMap Phase II
STAGE_PERIOD
2005–2007
DESCRIPTION
Expanded SNP density (~3.1M SNPs) and haplotype structure across the same core panels; improved tagging coverage and supported finer-scale association and phasing workflows before large-scale resequencing.
URL
HapMap Phase III
STAGE_PERIOD
2007–2009
DESCRIPTION
Extended to 11 populations and ~1.6M SNPs; broader ancestry representation and LD maps that informed the design and early phases of the 1000 Genomes Project.
URL
Pilot
STAGE_PERIOD
2008–2010
DESCRIPTION
Proof-of-concept low-coverage whole-genome sequencing and SNP arrays across multiple populations; established protocols and data model for the main project.
URL
Phase 1
STAGE_PERIOD
2010–2011
DESCRIPTION
Expanded low-coverage WGS (~1,092 individuals) with exome capture and dense SNP genotyping; primary SNP and indel reference for early imputation panels.
URL
Phase 3
STAGE_PERIOD
2012–2015
DESCRIPTION
~2,504 individuals across 26 populations; GRCh37/38 VCF releases became the standard allele-frequency, LD, and imputation backbone for GWAS and SV pipelines.
URL
High-coverage on GRCh38 (NYGC)
STAGE_PERIOD
2019–
DESCRIPTION
High-coverage whole-genome sequencing of a subset of Phase 3 samples on GRCh38; improves rare-variant discovery, phasing, and structural-variant catalogs while staying aligned with the 1000 Genomes sample framework.
