 Any number of steady-state or transient datasets can be imported. When importing transient datasets, a dataset name and a time step must be specified for each transient column. Names and time steps are entered into the header row, separated by a vertical slash using the following format: "Name|Timestep". For example, "Dataset1|January 1, 1900". All time steps of a transient dataset should be given the same name.

Examples

These examples can be copied and pasted into GMS.

 Any number of steady-state or transient datasets can be imported. When importing transient datasets, a dataset name and a time step must be specified for each transient column. Names and time steps are entered into the header row, separated by a vertical slash using the following format: "Name|Timestep". For example, "Dataset1|January 1, 1900". All time steps of a transient dataset should be given the same name.

"OBS_Q7"	85.3	39.3	33.2	1	999	0	0

Transient observation data

This adds time series curves to existing points in an existing observation coverage. The targeted coverage must be the active coverage.

The existing points and the data being imported are matched by Name or ID. If both Name and ID are specified then ID will take precedence.

Both Date and Time can be specified although data can be imported with only Date or only Time specified (at least one of these fields must be specified). If only the Date is specified then the time is set to 12:00:00 AM. If only Time is specified then it is assumed that date/time format is not being used and the time is treated as a relative time.

Well data

This creates new feature points in an existing coverage. The point types are set to "well" and the flow rate and other data are assigned to the points. A coverage with the "Wells" attribute must already exist and be the active coverage.

"well_3"	147.2	678.1	61.4	110	10.0	300.5

MODFLOW Well Package data

This creates new well boundary conditions in an existing MODFLOW simulation. Both steady state (one flow rate per well) or transient data (multiple flow rates at different times per well) can be imported. With transient data, multiple rows are used to list flow rates at different times (or date/times) and the Well Name field is used to associate the flow rates with the correct well. The times for changes in flow rate do not need to match the model stress period times. Flow rate curves are treated as stair step data and the rate for each stress period is found by temporal (time) interpolation. A prompt will ask if wanting to use the average flow rate for each stress period, or use the flow rate at the beginning of each stress period.

Use this field for relative times (starting from 0.0), or if specifying an actual time of day (5:00) to go with the Date field. If neither Date nor Time is specified, all stress periods will have the same Q.

"borehole_2"	5.0	0.0	1.0	248

Transient point data

This creates new time series curve data on existing feature points similar to the "Pumping data" option above. This option is more generic than the "Pumping data" option, however, because it will work with feature points of any type and any attribute (that can be transient) of that feature point.

The existing points and the data being imported are matched by Name or ID or X and Y. The order of precedence for these fields is ID, Name, then X and Y.

Beginning with GMS version 10.1, if multiple multiple points in the coverage have the same name and the imported data are matched by Name then a new time series will be created for all of the points with that name.

Both Date and Time can be specified although data can be imported with only Date or only Time specified (at least one of these fields must be specified). If only the Date is specified then the time is set to 12:00:00 AM. If only Time is specified then it is assumed that date/time format is not being used and the time is treated as a relative time.

Data for more than one attribute can be imported at the same time. The attributes of the active coverage are listed as available fields that can be mapped.

Dataset

Datasets can be imported from columnar text files and added to geometric objects (TINs, UGrids etc.). However text files containing datasets are not imported via the File|Open command (or pasting into the GMS window), but via the "Import Dataset" command found in the right-click menu of objects in the Project Explorer (objects that can have datasets). The format is similar as that of 2D or 3D Scatter Points as described above, but with only the dataset columns. The number of dataset values in the file must match the number of locations (points or cells) on the geometric object.

Field Type Required Comments
Dataset
Number
yes
 Any number of steady-state or transient datasets can be imported. When importing transient datasets, a dataset name and a time step must be specified for each transient column. Names and time steps are entered into the header row, separated by a vertical slash using the following format: "Name|Timestep". For example, "Dataset1|January 1, 1900". All time steps of a transient dataset should be given the same name.
