+
+   **What it does**
+
+The purpose of this tool is to provide compatibility of the MiModD analysis workflow with the external `CloudMap`_ *EMS Variant Density Mapping*, *Variant Discovery Mapping* and *Hawaiian Variant Mapping* tools.
+
+These tools complement MiModD by providing easily interpreted visualizations of mapping-by-sequencing analysis workflows.
+
+The tool converts a VCF file as generated by the *Extract Variant Sites* or *VCF Filter* tools to the format expected by the *CloudMap* series of tools.
+
+Optionally, it also extracts the chromosome names and sizes and reports them in the *CloudMap* *species configuration file* format.
+Such a file is required as input to the current versions of the *CloudMap* *Hawaiian* and *Variant Density* mapping tools, if you are working with a species other than the natively supported ones (i.e., other than *C. elegans* or *A. thaliana*).
+
+To use the output datasets of the tool with *CloudMap*, you only have to upload them to any public Galaxy server that hosts *CloudMap* like, e.g., the main Galaxy server at https://usegalaxy.org .
+
+.. class:: warningmark
+
+   EMS Variant Density Mapping is currently limited to *C. elegans* and other species with six chromosomes on the *CloudMap* side.
