Claim One:
1. A system for processing genetic data, including: a processor configured to: receive two or more genetic data sets for an individual from one or more genetic data sources, wherein the genetic data sets comprises information pertaining to the individual's deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) data; merge the genetic data sets from the one or more genetic data sources to obtain a set of merged genetic data for the individual, including to: identify a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) that is a duplicate SNP of the genetic data sets, wherein the SNP is associated with a variation that occurs at a location in the individual's DNA sequence, and values corresponding to the duplicate SNP in the genetic data sets are different; analyze the values of the duplicate SNP to resolve a discrepancy attributed to different values corresponding to the duplicate SNP and automatically determine an appropriate value that corresponds to the duplicate SNP, the analysis and determination being based at least in part on contextual information; and store the set of merged genetic data for the individual; wherein the appropriate value that is determined is stored in the set of merged genetic data, and a different value that corresponds to the duplicate SNP is not stored in the set of merged genetic data; and a memory coupled to the processor and configured to provide the processor with instructions.
