Summary
The Department of Defense Groundwater Modeling System (GMS) is ta
sophisticated groundwater modeling environment .

The Department of Defense, in partnership with the Department of Energy, the
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission
and 20 academic partners, has developed the DoD Groundwater Modeling System.
The GMS ... provides an integrated and comprehensive computational environment for
simulating subsurface flow, contaminant fate/transport, and the efficacy and
design of remediation systems.

GMS integrates and simplifies the process of groundwater flow and transport
modeling by bringing together all of the tools needed to complete a successful
study. GMS provides a comprehensive graphical environment for numerical
modeling, tools for site characterization, model conceptualization, mesh and
grid generation, geostatistics, and sophisticated tools for graphical
visualization.

Several types of models are supported by GMS. The current version of GMS
provides a complete interface for the codes FEMWATER, MODFLOW2000, MODPATH,
MT3D, RT3D, ART3D, SEAM 3D, FACT, SEEP2D, MODAEM, ADH, and WASH123D. The
parameter estimation codes PEST and UCODE are also supported. Additional tools
and interfaces for models are being designed in an on-going development process
so stay tuned for more features.
