Note sure how to contact you otherwise, this looks great. We have been working on a HITRAN tool for a while in Julia as well, both for GPU and CPU, check out https://github.com/RadiativeTransfer/RadiativeTransfer.jl. Using SQLite is a good idea, would be good to learn from each other.

Hi, that package looks great. Actually, I could use the scattering part for some of my work. I do not know, why I have missed your package. I have implemented this package because I could not find any up to date HITRAN implementation for Julia. Your approach seems very intriguing (especially the GPU acceleration). My focus was on providing the Hartman-Tran model and use ALL available parameters in the HITRAN database instead of the fixed width standard format. SQLite was my choice on order to use very large HITRAN databases.

I will have a more in-depth look at your code, maybe one could extend some of your features with ideas from this package, as your package solves a bigger range of problems (and I really love the possibility of calculating HITRAN spectra with GPU support).

@TacHawkes thank you! Your package looks really great too. It looks really well-implemented, and the SQLite seems like a great choice. I will also look deeper into this code this week.
