GenomeDiagram is a python package for the visualization of large-scale genomic data.

ABSTRACT: We present GenomeDiagram, a flexible, open-source Python module for the visualization of large-scale genomic, comparative genomic and other data with reference to a single chromosome or other biological sequence. GenomeDiagram may be used to generate publication-quality vector graphics, rastered images and in-line streamed graphics for webpages.[1]

It requires Python 2.3 or higher, and recent versions of the ReportLab and BioPython packages. GenomeDiagram has been merged in BioPython.
