The present study, using fuzzy operators in GIS, deals with the zoning of major tourism routes that have a significant impact on the success of related tourism businesses. The research method is descriptive-analytical using GIS and multi-criteria decision making models. The results show that the villages which are located in four tourist attraction poles. These routes can be modeled as the main traveled rural destinations. Continuously, by using four forms of routes, tried to assess the facilities along the routes and the tourism destinations, the natural and human attractions of each route, based on the target villages and the status of tourism businesses in the villages located on these routes. The results of this step showed that the route number one, with the best distance from the positive (0.1875) and negative (0.0678) ideals and the degree of proximity (0.7346), gained the highest score (main road to Sultan Seyyed Ahmad Shrine).Exploration the main routes of tourism is an approach to determine the pattern of travel density in order to boost rural tourism businesses.

Aim of this study is to evaluate the components of social and economic resilience of the earthquake-stricken city of Bam, which was struck by a devastating earthquake in 2003. Based on the goal, research method is applied, and descriptive-analytic method is used to evaluate the components of social and economic resilience of the earthquake-stricken of the city. Due to the heterogeneity of the population and sampling units, multi-stage sampling method was used. The sample size in this study, using the Cochran's formula, was determined to be 330 households. Statistical tests including one-sample t-test and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the data. The results show that households dwelled in Bam are at an undesirable condition in area of components of knowledge and skills, and desirable condition in terms of components of Components of awareness, attitude and social capital. Overall, the social resilience dimension has been reported at a desirable level. But, In term of economic resilience and its three components, 1) the amount and severity of damage, 2)the ability to compensate and 3)return to appropriate employment and financial conditions, the situation is relatively unfavorable.Finding a way to empower communities and individuals to resist against natural disasters has increased a necessity of defining and evaluating disaster resilience.

On the other hand, these contexts are a practical solution to prevent the physical expansion of the city from underdeveloped lands around the city and the development of empty and abandoned lands within the urban area that can help revitalize the city. In this regard, the main aim of this study is to identify the capacity of decayed texture to construct housing. Research method is descriptive-analytical in terms of nature, and applied in terms of purpose and aim. In order to achieve the goals of the research, spatial data and performing relevant analyzes in GIS and multi-criteria decision model AHP, VIKOR, SAW has been used. The statistical population were urban planning experts of Isfahan, and the sample size is 30 experts, based on theoretical saturation, and snowball sampling is used to choose the experts. The results of the two methods of VIKOR and linear weight combination showed that out of the total area of Sarcheshmeh neighborhood, in VIKOR model 336354.29 square meters and in linear weight combination model, 15213.59 square meters have high capacity for housing production. Since the number of pixels on the utility threshold is higher in the VIKOR model, the output of the VIKOR model is preferred to use the decayed texture to provide future housing.Urban decayed texture is the most important potential for using urban land, for housing, providing open spaces and services, and improving the environmental qualities.

The aim of this study, is to investigate and analyze the development capabilities of cities in Kurdistan province with emphasis on national convergence. It the term of aims applied method and in the tern of gathering and interpreting the descriptive-analytical method is used. In the process of preparing and producing data, first the effective factors on the development of Kurdistan province with emphasis on national convergence indicators are identified, using Delphi method and 45 experts’ ideas. In order to test the hypothesis, structural modeling and path analysis are utilized. The results showed that there is an effective relationship between the occurrence of development and its effect on national convergence with 0.48 coefficient path, which means that the components and criteria of development explain 0.48% of the success of the development strategy. On the other hand, there is a strong casual relationship between human development indicators (with 0.91 coefficient of path) and the occurrence of development, which means human development indicators determine development, but there is is no causal relationship between occurrence of political development factors (with a path coefficient) and success of the development in the cities of Kurdistan province. and it means that the factors of political development, due to the effect that it has on the occurrence of the development of the cities of Kurdistan province, can be a determining factor in the success of the development of the cities of Kurdistan province.

However sidewalks can play a complementary role in connection with other transportation networks and improve civic life in urban centers. In this study, the aim is to assess the desirability of urban sidewalks based on qualitative components in Naderi sidewalks in Ahvaz. The present research is theoretical-applied in nature and descriptive-analytical in terms of study method. Data collection has been Librarian and from the field. The statistical population of the study includes pedestrians and residents of Ahvaz commercial center. 320 pedestrians and residents were randomly selected as a sample size during one week. Data reliability was calculated by Cronbach's test to be 0.813. SPSS statistical tests were used to analyze the data. The results of the analysis show that the rare sidewalk in Ahvaz is far from the characteristics of a desirable sidewalk. Among the studied indices, the attractiveness and vitality index with an average of 2.96 and accessibility with 2.82 have a more suitable situation than other indices. It should be noted that safety, furniture and mixed uses on the sidewalk should be given serious attention. So that citizens can walk and have fun freely and with complete safety and comfort.Today, the widespread presence of vehicles, as well as the growing share of Passenger rides in the structure of cities, has created problems and caused sidewalks to be reserved only for places of passage.
