Web-based tool for visualization, phylogenetic inference, analysis and sharing

PHYLOViZ Online is an online version of the software PHYLOViZ, a software that allows the analysis of sequence-based typing methods that generate allelic profiles and their associated epidemiological data. Our motivation was to give an user-friendly solution for data analysis and sharing without installing any specific software.

The application is freely available to all users and there is no login requirement. All users can upload and perform data analysis. There is the additional possibility of storing data on the application for future access upon registration.

PHYLOViZ Online is a Web version of the standalone available here.

• Tree visualization is done using VivaGraphJS’ force directed layout. Its rendering is assigned to the WebGL JavaScript API.
• Tables are generated using the DataTables JavaScript library.
• Visual representation of multi-sequence alignment for FASTA input les was also implemented using the BioJS MSA Viewer package
• Additional visual representations (Pie Charts and Interactive Distance Matrix) are constructed using Data Driven Documents (D3.js).

The application is at the moment fully functional using Google Chrome, Safari, and Firefox Web Browsers. Users might experience some issues when loading labels using Firefox or Safari. Performance is higher if you use Chrome. Mobile versions and other browsers still have some limitations that we expect to surpass in a near future.

A RESTful API was developed to allow the access to a range of services so that more advanced users can programmatically use some of PHYLOViZ Online features without using the application's graphical interface.
