species
spectral characterization and inference for exoplanet science
species is a toolkit for atmospheric characterization of directly imaged exoplanets. It provides a coherent framework for spectral and photometric analysis which builds on publicly-available data and models from various resources.
There are tools available for inference of atmospheric and evolutionary parameters, synthetic photometry, interpolation of model grids, color-magnitude and color-color diagrams, empirical spectral analysis, flux calibration, emission line analysis, and more.
The package is available on PyPI and is developed and maintained on GitHub.
Documentation

Tutorials
There are several Jupyter notebooks with tutorials for various types of analyses and functionalities.
