downloading bam files of phase 3 of 1000 genomes project

Hello everyone,

I am new in 1000 genomes project data. I want to download all bam files belonging to phase3, can anyone guide me how can I download all of them (from the command line?). Do you have any estimation how long it is going to take?

I want to compute the depth of coverage only for some specific intervals, not the entire genome. Is there any way that I could do it without downloading the data? I could find this, but not sure if it is relevant to what I want to do?

samtools view -b  ftp://ftp.1000genomes.ebi.ac.uk/vol1/ftp/data/HG01375/alignment/HG01375.mapped.ILLUMINA.bwa.CLM.low_coverage.20120522.bam 2:1,000,000-2,000,000 | genomeCoverageBed -ibam stdin -bg > coverage.bg

I would appreciate if anyone could guide me.

Hi Pierre, Thanks, so you mean I can use you command above without downloading the bam files? Can I also run it through loops for all of the bam files? there are 2504 individuals
