In the rapid development of the lattice Boltzmann method, the link to its predecessor Lattice-Gas Cellular Automata has been compromised. To reconstruct this link, we introduce the Molecular Dynamics Lattice Gas analysis tool, which derives the lattice Boltzmann method from a coarse-grained Molecular Dynamics simulation. The Molecular Dynamics Lattice Gas tool allows us to connect the lattice Boltzmann method to physical reality and thus to derive its key elements such as equilibrium distribution function, relaxation time and collision rules.
