Coming Soon: Y-DNA Haplogroups for Family Finder

If you are a GAP admin, you can easily check to see if your members have predictions.  Just click Reports > Member Reports > Received Lab Results and check the Lab Procedure column for "Prediction" (with no other adjacent procedures for the person).  My small project has only one "Prediction" so far, and it is surprisingly good:  he is a Y-37 tester with a former high-level haplogroup of I-P37, and now he's 17 "blocks" below at I-FGC7189.

Thank you for posting the link to the spread sheet, but man that is so disappointing.

They appear to have no rhyme or reason when choosing SNPs to maximize coverage.  Instead they drill way down on a certain line while ignoring others that are much further up the tree.

For example they included
Z142>Z51
Z142>Z51>L562
Z142>Z51>L562>Z57
Z142>Z51>L562>Z57>Z148
Z142>Z51>L562>Z57>Z148>Z149
Z142>Z51>L562>Z57>Z148>Z149>Z52
Z142>Z51>L562>Z57>Z148>Z149>Z52>CTS11232
Z142>Z51>L562>Z57>Z148>Z149>Z52>CTS278
Z142>Z51>L562>Z57>S1491
Z142>Z51>L562>Z57>S1491>S1480
Z142>Z51>L562>Z57>S1491>S1497
Z142>Z12222>FT38430>CTS9490>CTS7970
Z142>Z12222>FT38430>CTS9490>CTS7970>CTS8125
Z142>Z12222>FT38430>CTS9490>CTS7970>CTS8125>FGC46210>CTS11381
Z142>Z12222>FT38430>BY1701>BY1542>S42
Z142>Z12222>BY3616>L552

Why would you drill down 6 to 7 levels below Z142, but fail to include SNP Z142, SNP Z12222, or the largest and 2nd largest subclades of Z12222: FT38430 and FGC1278?
