MODTRAN6 has been improved with C/C++ API and support for processing JSON formatted atmosphere profile files. These Live Editor scripts allow for creating custom atmosphere profile JSON files that can be used with the MODTRAN6 GUI or with the C/C++ API.
The Matlab_for_MODTRAN script provides functionality to incorporate radiosonde data from various sources, update atmosphere composition, and modify single gas concentrations for specific layers. This script outputs the space to sensor path radiance converted to an equivalent blackbody temperature with appropriate spectral response for a MWIR and LWIR camera.
