GPS Origins Ancestry Test

Medically Reviewed By: Quentin Caswell, FNP-C
Last Updated: July 7, 2023

GPS (Geographic Population Structure) Origins will test for your story of human migration, your genetic origin percentages and history, and your ancestral migration routes and stories all in digital form.

Test Details

This test analyzes over 800,000 autosomal markers from your DNA to pinpoint your origins. It identifies when and where your DNA formed by matching the populations that came together to create a genetic line that eventually leads to you.

The GPS Origins™ test then traces the migration route of your DNA back to where it originated from and dated the age of your DNA signature. It does that for both your maternal and paternal lineages indicating where your DNA began. Your results are detailed in a report that reveals your ancestral origins.
