mod-PATH3DU is a particle tracking program similar to MODPATH but designed to work with MODFLOW-USG. GMS includes an interface that makes it easy to create mod-PATH3DU simulations, run them, and view the results.

Much of the mod-PATH3DU interface in GMS is similar to the MODPATH interface, but the mod-PATH3DU interface is not yet as fully developed. For example, mod-PATH3DU works more like other models in GMS in that the simulation must be saved and run and then the results are read and displayed, whereas in MODPATH this typically happens automatically whenever a change is made. Also, generation and display of capture zones is not yet supported for mod-PATH3DU. In the future, more functionality will be added to the mod-PATH3DU interface in GMS.
