Description: 

The spot model is Illumina GA centric. The flowcells have the locations where the adapters have stuck them to the glass of the lane. There are X and Y coordinates that identify these 'spots'. As the camera reads the fluorescent flashes during sequencing, the coordinates indicate which spot the new base is added to. All of the bases for a single location constitute the spot.
