In this paper we present the improvements in our understanding of Titan's atmospheric and surface chemical composition in view of recent developments on the methane opacity, a very important parameter in simulating Titan's spectrum. In this work, we use a multi-stream radiative transfer model benefitting from the latest methane absorption coefficients available to date: theoretical predictions [1] as well as laboratory measurements [2, 3]. This code if first of all applied to the Cassini/VIMS spectro-imaging data, focusing on regions of high spectral versatility, probably related to geologically active regions. While we study the chemical composition of the ground in such regions, we also propose a re-analysis of spectral data acquired from the Earth with either ISO or ground-based facilities like VLT/NACO and VLT/ISAAC.
