Abstract: Provided herein is a method for making a physical map of a population of barcoded particles. In some embodiments, the method may involve: producing a complex comprising: i. a population of barcoded particles, wherein the barcoded particles are uniquely barcoded by surface-tethered oligonucleotides that have unique particle identifier sequences; and ii. a population of bridging moieties that comprises oligonucleotide sequences; wherein the bridging moieties are hybridized directly or indirectly to complementary sites in the surface-tethered oligonucleotides; performing a ligation, polymerization and/or a gap-fill/ligation reaction on the complex, thereby producing reaction products that comprise pairs of unique particle identifier sequences or complements thereof from adjacent barcoded particles: sequencing the reaction products, analyzing the sequences to making one or more physical maps of the barcoded particles. Systems for practicing the method are also provided.
