This document provides an overview of phylogenetic inference and metadata visualization for next-generation sequencing data. It discusses various software for phylogenetic tree construction based on sequence alignments. It also describes different sequence-based typing methods like multilocus sequence typing and single nucleotide polymorphism typing that can be applied to NGS data. Finally, it introduces the PhyloViz software for integrating phylogenetic analysis using the goeBURST algorithm with metadata visualization.
