OmniPop
A forensic spreadsheet that contains probable population frequencies from more than 300 different studies of people from all over the world. If an autosomal STR profile (such as your CODIS markers) is entered, it calculates the average population frequencies for each population and displays them graphically with dots on a world map. Used in our DNA Fingerprint Test. Download an older version of OmniPop with 200 populations at the National Institute of Standards and Technology. DNA Consultants helped fund additions to the populations included in OmniPop and uses the latest version, which it licensed from the creator, Brian Burritt of the San Diego Police Department.
Note that these are statistical calculations. OmniPop is a probabilistic predictor of population affinities for an individual and it matches populations, not persons. Like all other such programs, it is not absolute. It gives the chances for a match, not strictly speaking a 100% sure match in terms of yes/no. Consequently, all matches must be carefully evaluated and interpreted.
