We expect the incoming VCF files to have the following properties:
- Build version must be specified in VCF metadata (using the
assembly
key in thecontig
header) - Build version must be
b38
(i.e.GRCh38
) - The
CHROM
field must be in the formatchr##
- All positions must be provided. If a required position is missing, it is assumed that the position could not be called.
- Should only have data for a single sample. If it's a multi-sample VCF file, only the first sample is used.
