Groundwater Modelling System Speed & Simplicity in 3D
GMS is the most intuitive and capable software platform used to create groundwater and subsurface simulations in a 3D environment
Speed up & simplify model building with the conceptual model approach in GMS
We pioneered conceptual modeling and have refined it over many years. That's why GMS is the quickest and most intuitive groundwater modeling interface available. Construct a high level representation of the model using familiar GIS objects: points, arcs and polygons and easily update the model as needed.
For models with simple geometry and boundary conditions, use the grid approach and edit values directly in the grid.
3D visualization optimized for performance
GMS is the most advanced software system available for performing groundwater simulations in a three-dimensional environment.
Interact with models in true 3D Optimized OpenGL graphics for improved hardware rendering Create photo-realistic renderings Generate animations for PowerPoint or web presentations Drape /images over the model and control the opacity Annotations Add north arrows, scale bars, reference /images, company logos, and more
Import a variety of data formats & imagery
Models require data from many different sources. Thats why GMS is built to easily import numerous file types:
Raster /images including georeference and projection support Topographical maps & elevation data Borehole data including stratigraphy and geophysical data Native MODFLOW files MODFLOW files from Visual MODFLOW, Groundwater Vistas and PM Win Web data services such as TerraServer ArcGIS geodatabases and shapefiles CAD files including .dwg, .dgn, and .dxf formats Worldwide projection support including Cartesian and Geographic Systems File Import wizard for delimited text files and spreadsheets
Advanced subsurface characterization
From cross-section editing to advanced probability statistics, GMS offers unparalleled subsurface modeling tools.
Generate iso-surfaces from 3D data to visualize plumes Cut cross-sections anywhere through 3D data 2D & 3D geostatistics Kriging, IDW and Natural Neighbor Robust and fast algorithms to create solids from horizons
Software from an Industry Leader
GMS is developed by Aquaveo, an engineering services company with many years of experience developing groundwater modeling solutions.

GMS 9.2 System Requirements
Microsoft Windows XP
RAM: 512 MB (2GB Recommended)
Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8
RAM: 1 GB (4GB Recommended) CPU: GMS software is CPU intensive. Some models and utilities integrated with GMS can take advantage of multiple processor cores simultaneously. Graphics Card: For all display features to be enabled, OpenGL 1.5 or higher must be supported. The use of a dedicated graphics card is strongly recommended. Integrated graphics can result in significantly reduced performance and may not support some visualization features. Display Resolution: 1024 x 768 or greater
