Hi Yuri,
phenix.fake_f_obs
does something similar. It takes a PDB file with a model, and outputs an
MTZ file with generated Fobs. It tries to include as many things as
reasonably possible:
- crystal anisotropy,
- bulk-solvent;
- local model model disorder;
- global model vibrations using TLS,
- adds H if missing,
... and more.
You can take this fake data and refine model against it to R=0% (if you
manage to come up with the appropriate refinement strategy).
Not sure what it is good for, except for developers.
Reflection file viewer is available from PHENIX GUI - it allowed you to
see reciprocal space in 2 or 3D. See Nat's article "A lightweight,
versatile framework for visualizing reciprocal-space data" here

There are more tools in PHENIX that more or less fit into description of
what you want, I guess.
