# Mapping

### Read-Level Metrics

| Metric            | Description                                                                     |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Total input reads | Total number of input reads                                                     |
| QC-failed reads   | Total number of reads failing one or more quality checks                        |
| % QC-failed       | Percentage of reads failing one or more quality checks                          |
| Unique reads      | Total number of unique reads                                                    |
| % Unique          | Percentage of reads that are unique                                             |
| Mapped reads      | Total number of mapped reads, adjusted for filtered and excluded targets        |
| % Mapped          | Percentage of reads that are mapped, adjusted for filtered and excluded targets |

### Base-Level Metrics

| Metric      | Description                                          |
| ----------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
| Total Bases | Total number of input bases                          |
| Mapped R1   | Total number of mapped bases on R1                   |
| % Mapped R1 | Percentage of R1 bases mapped                        |
| % Q30 R1    | Percentage of R1 bases with phred quality score >=30 |

### Deduplication

The deduplication bar chart reflects the ratio of unique and deduplicated reads.

### Read MAPQs

The read MAPQs bar chart reflects the percent of reads in various categories of phred quality score (Q0-Q10, Q10-Q20, Q20-Q30, Q30-Q40, Q40+).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.bioinsight.illumina.com/dragen-single-cell-rna/analysis-results/dragen-report/mapping.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
