GMS includes a comprehensive graphical interface to the groundwater model MODFLOW. MODFLOW is a 3D, cell-centered, finite difference, saturated flow model developed by the United States Geological Survey (McDonald & Harbaugh, 1988). MODFLOW can perform both steady state and transient analyses and has a wide variety of boundary conditions and input options. In GMS, MODFLOW can work with the 3D Grid module and 3D UGrid module. | GMS includes a comprehensive graphical interface to the groundwater model MODFLOW.

GMS supports MODFLOW as a pre- and post-processor. The input data for MODFLOW are generated by GMS and saved to a set of files. These files are read by MODFLOW when MODFLOW is launched from the ''MODFLOW'' menu. The output from MODFLOW is then imported to GMS for post-processing. | GMS supports MODFLOW as a pre- and post-processor. The input data for MODFLOW are generated by GMS and saved to a set of files.

A special version of MODFLOW is distributed with GMS. This version of MODFLOW is the same as the version distributed by the USGS except for a few minor changes primarily related to file input including reading input data from HDF5 files. These changes are clearly marked in the code. For more information see [[GMS:MODFLOW with HDF5 | MODFLOW with HDF5]]. | A special version of MODFLOW is distributed with GMS.
