PROBLEM WITH MODFLOW GROUNDWATER VISTAS

[diana montoya]

Hi. My name is Diana Montoya. I am student of the Antioquia University. My english is not very good, but I will try to write my problem with output file .hds of MODFLOW in the comercial version GroundWater Vistas 4.25 de Enviromental Simulation Inc.

My problems is what I don´t see the results in the output file (.hds). It contains strange symbols. However, the program (dataset) runs and the solution to converge, and it shows the results in form graphic. I don´t understand what happens?

Thanks.

 

PD: My proyect is about the numeric simulation groundwater - surface water interactions in Wetlands. I tried work with wetland package. Please someone what did work before with this package and have documentation. Help me so much if It will send me.

 

Thanks again

It is a binary file.

Several of the topics on the following page can help including "What do
I need to do to have MODFLOW save heads or drawdowns in ASCII format?"
and "How can I read data from a binary file generated by MODFLOW?"
