- Gene Pool Percentages : You will be able to see your Top 3 Gene Pools and an interactive map highlight the regions included.
- Gene Pool Percentages – Complete results : You will receive a breakdown of all the gene pool regions and the percentage affiliation. See sample report here.
- Historical information: A comparison of your unique DNA signatures with other studied populations across the world which enables us to locate where your very first ancestors came from and where they settled. This section will also detail an explanation of the agricultural and historical background as well as give possible reasons as to why your ancestors went there in the first place. This section is also plotted on a map – see sample map.

How recent and precise is GPS Origins™?
The GPS Origins™ is a powerful tool for tracing more recent ancestry, in fact taking you back only 1000 years from the present day. Generally your DNA will be linked to countries, areas or directions (North, South, East or West), but in some cases we will be able to zoom in onto the island, town or village from where your ancestors came.
Confirming what you might know about your roots with GPS Origins™
Most people investigate their ancestry to try and get a more complete picture of their family tree. However, unless we employ the right tools (like DNA testing) or the right individuals (such as genealogists), we reach a stone wall. So you believe that you have French, Turkish, Russian, English or German ancestry – but can you be sure? The GPS Origins™ will enable you to confirm whether what you know about your ancestry is likely to be correct.
