Short summary

HAPI2LIBIS is a new software tool that enhances the capabilities of the radiative transfer model libRadtran. It simplifies high-wavelength-resolution simulations by using up-to-date molecular data from the HITRAN (High-Resolution Transmission Molecular Absorption) database and streamlining computations. This tool helps researchers analyze how gases interact with radiation in the Earth's atmosphere and at the surface, improving atmospheric studies and satellite observations and making detailed modeling more accurate and accessible.
