Presentation of Model to Special Organization of east Azerbaijan Province based on Regional Planning approach in the Vision

The major part of all planning and regional developments theories has been devoted to plan a spatial structure corresponding to the position of each region. In addition to the general conditions of the country, border provinces, as the bridges to the other countries, have great importance in planning. The necessary characteristics can be explained in four aspects of geo-economics, geo-strategic, geo-culture and geo-politics. Sometimes in geopolitics analysis a region can be distinct from the others because of various reasons such as locating along major and international waterway, having rich resources, strategic location and being across the international transit passages. Hence, the aim of this article is to access appropriate planning for long term spatial structure. This plan is based on using of opportunities and weaknesses location strategic and also reducing the geo-politic, geo-economic, geo-culture threats. Therefore, the gathering information of this descriptive–analytical research is documentary and library. The results indicate that Tabriz, as central of a province or in other words as a central core of north-west region of Iran, has devoted a strong concentration of activities and population to itself and while other regions of this province are underdeveloped. In fact, the distribution of population in Maraghe as the second city of province is ten times lesser than the center of province. As a result of this study, Tabriz-Ahar, Soofiayn-Shabestar-Tasooj axis and Tabriz-Miyandoab axis are recommended as an axis for strengthen the spatial structure to East Azarbaijan Province.
