  1. The data intervals are ENCODE intervals and query intervals are gnomAD intervals. *BEDOPS cannot return the detailed intersection information as RTFC and BEDTools, it returns only the subset of overlapping intervals in the first bed file and ignores the overlapping intervals in the second bed file.
