Re: Natural State geothermal model calibration using itough2
@Melissa De Freitas Hi Melissa, if you are willing to use GMS for preparing and populating the input grid to tough2 or tough3 and display the output I have written two simple codes to do this and I…

Re: Natural State geothermal model calibration using itough2
I, my self, use GMS form Aquaveo both for pre- and post-processing. It is actually very useful for producing original state of geothermal fields. This is the way I do it.…

Re: Creating an angled domain
Sulav, to create such a grid, there are a number of ways to do it, but usually you need a software to help you in this. One of the possible softwares is "wingrider" or GMS or LeapFrog (perhaps also…

Re: Pre- & Post- processors - What are their Pros and Cons?
Dear Ella, In the past for similar problems I have used GMS (Groundwater Modeling System) from Aquaveo. GMS is not free and has very powerful geologic and conceptual modeling tools for pre- and…

Re: Using the GMS for TOUGH2 visualization
Hi Sarah, TT2M works with a GMS grid. It converts the TOUGH2 node data to a “3D scatter point” file that can be imported into GMS. Then for visualization you need to interpolate this 3D scatter…

Christoph, I know for sure that each Modflow pre- and post-processor have slightly different file format. The differences can arise because a number of tricks are used to reduce file size.…
