The Solid module of GMS is used to construct three-dimensional models of stratigraphy using solids. The module contains its own set [[GMS:Solid Module Tool Palette|tools]] and [[GMS:Solid Commands|menu commands]] that can be used to modify solid data. The module also has its own [[GMS:Solid Display Options|display options]] for convenience in visualizing solid data. | The Solid module of GMS is used to construct three-dimensional models of stratigraphy using solids.

Solids are used for site characterization and visualization. Solids can also be used to define layer elevation data for MODFLOW models using the [[GMS:Solids to MODFLOW Command|'''Solids → MODFLOW''' command]] or [[GMS:Solids to HUF|'''Solids to HUF''']] and to define a layered 3D mesh using the [[GMS:Solids to Layered Mesh|'''Solids → Layered Mesh''']]. | Solids are used for site characterization and visualization.
