Overview

The MetaCoord class describes what coordinate systems are used to annotate features. It will for example tell you that marker_features are annotated either on the chromosome, supercontig and clone level.

This class should normally not be used by the end user, but is used internally.

This class uses ActiveRecord to access data in the Ensembl database. See the general documentation of the Ensembl module for more information on what this means and what methods are available.
