In this paper we present the "Small Bodies: Near and Far" Infrared Database, an easy-to-use tool intended to facilitate the modeling of thermal emission of small Solar System bodies. Our database collects thermal emission measurements of small Solar Systems targets that are otherwise available in scattered sources and gives a complete description of the data, with all information necessary to perform direct scientific analyses and without the need to access additional, external resources. This public database contains representative data of asteroid observations of large surveys (e.g. AKARI, IRAS and WISE) as well as a collection of small body observations of infrared space telescopes (e.g. the Herschel Space Observatory) and provides a web interface to access this data (https://ird.konkoly.hu). We also provide an example for the direct application of the database and show how it can be used to estimate the thermal inertia of specific populations, e.g. asteroids within a given size range. We show how different scalings of thermal inertia with heliocentric distance (i.e. temperature) may affect our interpretation of the data and discuss why the widely-used radiative conductivity exponent ($α$=-3/4) might not be adequate in general, as hinted by previous studies.
