Abstract

The usefulness of groundwater vulnerability mapping cannot be overemphasized in planning, policy formulation and decision-making for groundwater management and protection. The present study employed geographic information system based overlay and index methods (DRASTIC, DRASTIC-LU, GOD and AVI models) in assessing and mapping groundwater vulnerability zones in Ile Oluji area of Ondo State, Southwestern Nigeria. The models’ parameters were prepared using hydrogeological (well/borehole) data, geophysical data, and satellite imageries. The weightage of different parameters was done using analytical hierarchy process. The DRASTIC map classified the area into the low vulnerability (30 % of the area), moderate (4%), high-vulnerability zone (60 %), and very high vulnerability zone (6 %). The DRASTIC-LU distinguished the area into high – very high groundwater vulnerability zone (90 %), while low – moderately low area has 10 % aerial extent. The GOD and AVI models, categorized the vulnerable areas into quite low (
