The Surface-water Modeling System (SMS) is a graphical user interface and analysis tool that allows engineers and scientists to visualize, manipulate, analyze, and understand numerical data and associated measurements. Many of the tools in SMS are generic, and they are designed to facilitate the establishment and operation of numerical models of rivers, coasts, inlets, bays, estuaries, and lakes.
Introduction to SMS
- The Highlights provide a summary of SMS capabilities.
- The SMS Tutorials are step-by-step guides for building models and using SMS features. They are an excellent place to begin learning how to use SMS.
- See Layout of the Graphical Interface for more information on the organization of the toolbars, menus, and windows in SMS.
- Much of the SMS functionality is divided into Modules based upon the type of data (grids, meshes, GIS, etc). SMS also contains features that are not tied to specific modules.
- SMS supports a number of Numerical Models with a variety of uses including hydraulics, wave modeling, and particle tracking.
