Illumina Coverage Calculator

About This Tool

The Illumina Coverage Calculator is an essential tool for genomics researchers and laboratory professionals. It helps determine how much sequencing data is required to achieve desired coverage depths across genomes or specific target regions. By inputting basic parameters such as genome size, read length, and target coverage, users receive precise calculations of total reads or bases needed. This facilitates efficient experimental design, cost estimation, and quality assurance before sequencing begins.

Designed for ease of use, the calculator provides instant feedback with clear, actionable results. Perfect for planning whole-genome, exome, or targeted sequencing projects on Illumina platforms. Whether optimizing for clinical accuracy or research throughput, this tool ensures your sequencing efforts are both effective and economical.

Additional features include optional error rate adjustments, multi-sample estimates, and result exports. The intuitive interface makes it suitable for scientists, bioinformaticians, and lab technicians alike, providing critical insights to make informed decisions about sequencing depth, resource allocation, and experiment success.

Use the Illumina Coverage Calculator to streamline your workflow, reduce costs, and improve data quality in genomics research and clinical diagnostics.
