##[[GMS:TIN Module|TINs]] - TINs can be created 3 different ways in GMS: manually entering the vertex locations and triangulating, converting a different GMS data type to a TIN, and copying a currently existing TIN.

#'''Assign Horizon IDs''' - The term “horizon” refers to the top of each stratigraphic unit that will be represented in a corresponding Solid, HUF unit or Material Layer. Horizons are numbered consecutively in the order that the strata are “deposited” (from the bottom up). Horizons can be assigned to both Boreholes and TINs.

#'''Create 3D Grid/MODFLOW model''' - A 3D Grid and MODFLOW model need to be first created to use the Horizon -> HUF command. The flow package for the MODFLOW model must also be set to use the HUF package. Before building a MODFLOW simulation, a [[GMS:3D Grid Module|3D grid]] must be created which covers the area to be modeled. A grid can be created by selecting the [[GMS:3D Grid Module#Creating 3D Grids|'''''Create Grid''''']] command in the ''Grid'' menu. A suite of tools and commands for editing grids (inserting rows, changing column widths, etc.) are also provided in the 3D Grid Module. If the [[GMS:MODFLOW Conceptual Model Approach|conceptual model approach]] is used to construct a MODFLOW model, the grid can be automatically constructed from the conceptual model data using the [[GMS:Grid Frame|'''''Grid Frame''''']] and the '''''Map -> 3D Grid''''' command in the ''Feature Objects'' menu. The grid can be automatically refined around wells and cells outside the model domain can be inactivated. | #'''Create 3D Grid/MODFLOW model''' - A 3D Grid and MODFLOW model need to be first created to use the Horizon -> HUF command.
