The Genome Context Viewer is a web application for identifying, aligning, and visualizing genomic regions based on their micro and macrosyntenic structures. By using functional elements such as gene annotations as the unit of search and comparison, the Genome Context Viewer can compute and display relationships between regions across many assemblies from federated data sources in real-time, enabling users to rapidly explore multiple annotated genomes and identify divergence and structural events that can help provide insight into evolutionary mechanisms associated with functional consequences. In this work, we introduce version 2 of the Genome Context Viewer and highlight new features that enhance usability, performance, and ease of deployment.
