MODFLOW Graphical User Interface
with Argus ONE
MODFLOW-GUI - Preprocessor and Postprocessor Graphical User Interface for
Preparing MODFLOW-2000, MODFLOW-96, MOC3D, MODPATH and ZONEBDGT Input Data and Viewing Model Output for Use Within Argus Open Numerical Environments (Argus ONE)
The MODFLOW Graphical User Interface (MODFLOW-GUI) for Argus ONE adds support for the U.S. Geological Survey's MODFLOW-2000 and the Reservoir,
Transient Leakage, Interbed Storage, Lake, and Gage packages. The new version can also import existing MODFLOW-88 and MODFLOW-96 models. A utility program, GW_Chart, was developed in conjunction with the MODFLOW GUI and is used
for post-processing of the output of MODFLOW. Also, in conjunction with the development of the MODFLOW GUI, three utility Plug-In Extensions (PIE's) were developed. One PIE facilitates importing gridded data into Argus ONE.
This is helpful when attempting to reproduce an existing model in Argus ONE. Another PIE allows editing of data points on data layers. A third utility PIE allows expressions to be evaluated at specific X,Y coordinates. A series
of example models were created and can be used to learn about the features of MODFLOW, Argus ONE, and the MODFLOW GUI. The MODFLOW GUI is from the USGS, the actual developers of MODFLOW. As a result, the MODFLOW GUI is always
the first to support new technologies introduced into MODFLOW.
Note: The Argus ONE interface only works with MODFLOW-2000, MODFLOW-96 and not with earlier versions of MODFLOW.
MODFLOW-GUI supports the following packages: BAS5, BAS6, BCF5, BCF6, LPF, WEL5, RIV5, DRN5, GHB5, RCH5, EVT5, SOR5, SIP5, PCG2, DE4, STR1,
HFB1, HFB6, FHB1, IBS1, RES1, TLK1, ETS1, DRT1, LMG1, OBS, HOB, GBOB, DROB, RVOB, ADOB, SEN, PES, MOC3D, MODPATH, and ZONEBDGT.
The following capabilities are NOT yet supported: CHD1, GFD1, HUF1, HYDMOD.
The MODFLOW-GUI is free for downloading from the USGS. It requires the Argus ONE GIS and Grid Modules!
