HITRAN is an acronym for high-resolution transmission molecular absorption database. HITRAN is a compilation of spectroscopic parameters that a variety of computer codes use to predict and simulate the transmission and emission of light in the atmosphere. HITRAN data is predominantly used in atmospheric science and astrophysics, but it has many applications throughout science, industry, and technology.
The HITRAN project is directed from the Center for Astrophysics | Harvard & Smithsonian. Development and maintenance of HITRAN is currently supported by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).
