Purpose of this study is zoning of Marand aquifer vulnerability mapping using DRASTIC, AVI methods and comparing their susceptibility adopted from these methods. The DRASTIC method is a combination of seven measurable hydro-geological characteristics that are effective on transportation of contaminant into groundwater. The GODS and AVI methods combine four and have two properties respectively. The DRASTIC method results is the most complete index for assessing groundwater vulnerability, which has been estimated the vulnerability for the study area as moderate 50.4 percent, high 32.9 percent and very high16.7 percent. The GODS method results suggest three classes for the Marand aquifer vulnerability including moderate, high and very high with 43.8, 5.16 and 51.04 percent, respectively. Also the AVI method results indicate that the aquifer has a vulnerability of moderate, high and very high with 39.13, 6.5 and 54.37 percent, respectively. In all three methods, the degree of vulnerability in the East, Southeast and Northeast parts of the pain is more than the central and western parts of the pain. DRASTIC model is determined the vulnerability areas more accurately due to having more features and different weighting of the features based on their role in pollution.
