API and toolkit for handling BAM files

BamTools provides both a programmer's API and an end-user's toolkit for handling BAM files. BAM is the binary alternative to the sequence alignment/map (SAM) format used for storing genetic sequence data. It uses BGZF block compression implemented on top of the standard gzip file format to provide good compression while allowing efficient random access for indexed queries.
