The groundwater is an essential natural resource that differs both quantitatively and qualitatively. The rapid urbanization and population growth put considerable pressure on the quality and quantity of groundwater resources. In order to meet the challenges caused by scarcity of water resources, such as in semi-arid and arid regions, optimal rehabilitation and operation of aquifers are one of the ways to tackle the challenges. A Geographic Information System (GIS) is crucial to preparing these different subject layers to access potential groundwater recharge areas. Using AHP and TOPSIS methods, this study identified areas that might be suitable for artificial groundwater recharge in the Dezful-Andimeshk plain. There were several criteria considered in this study, including alluvial thickness, transferability, lithology, distance from the road, distance from the river, and land use. After preparing necessary maps and their overlap in GIS software, the layers were checked, and suitable locations were identified. The study found that the northern and central regions are more appropriate for artificial recharge in light of the criteria. The percentage of areas in each four categories of excellent, good, average, and poor was calculated for comparison purposes. Using the AHP method, 9.83, 30.53, 30.15, and 29.49% were obtained, whereas using the TOPSIS method, 20.31, 28.47, 27.48, and 23.74 were obtained, respectively.
