Cif-tools
CIF-tools are software applications designed to read, create, and manipulate Crystallographic Information Files (CIFs), which are standardized data formats used to describe the structure of crystalline materials. They enable scientists to analyze crystal data, visualize molecular structures, and share detailed structural information efficiently. CIF-tools facilitate tasks such as data validation, conversion, and database integration, helping researchers streamline crystallography workflows and ensure accurate, consistent data exchange across laboratories and software platforms.
