Google maps update: 1442 instruments in 486 labs

james hadfield · 02-21-2011, 04:17 AM

Hi All,
Thanks to everyone for putting themselves on the Instrument Map. I spoke to several people at AGBT about the map and there is a lot of interest in finding out what our neighbors are doing. We're all a bit nosy after all!
The map was used in a recent Nature editorial.

Several companies are using the map now for reporting reasons and my conversations with Illumina and ABI suggest we are capturing about 2/3rds of the installs for both platforms. I have seen at least two grant submissions that reference the map but have not yet seen it reference in a paper (hint hint).

There are now almost 1500 instruments listed across almost 500 labs, an average of 3.0 per lab.
Please keep your facility up to date and encourage your friends to do the same.

Stats: There are 1442 total machines listed in the database situated in 486 centers, an average of 3.0 machines per centre.

Machines by platform

Illumina GAIIx 644
Illumina HiSeq 270
ABI SOLiD 264

Why is China mentioned twice in the Country List?
Once with 182 machines and second time with 6 machines.
Does the Second China mean Taiwan???

Dear James,

I would like to update the map with the machines we now have in our lab but i don't find the way to add a bookmark on the map and enter the information i want to add...

Is this map still "updatable"?

Thank you,

Regards,

Durandg.

Hello from Mexico
I would like to show my students a map showing all the instruments of massive DNA sequencing in the world. Where I can find it? Thank you

This map on James Hadfield's blog about NGS has a good map, I believe he updated it back in January.
