Factors Influencing the Change in Physical and Spatial Structure of Asadabad City
Similar to a living organism, a city is always changing and evolving. Formation, survival, and changes in the appearance of the urban texture, as well as its growth and development are influenced by a set of natural and manmade factors and forces, which impose a new appearance and texture on the physical body of the city. It is obvious that understanding the current state and problems of the city, as well as predicting its future changes require the understanding of these factors and their mechanisms of impact. The main objective of the current study is to identify the factors which influence the changes in the spatial and physical structure of Asadabad City. This study is a descriptive analytical study which utilizes the following tools and
library studies, internet research, field studies (observations), preparing the required map, and analyzing the maps in GIS. In this study, the factors affecting the physical development of Asadabad City include the status of migration, economic factors, physical development components of Asadabad City, policy making factors, marginalization of the population, along with factors such as slope and topography, which can be considered as limiting factors for the physical development of Asadabad City. The results obtained from SWOT analysis show that scientific and efficient management requires understanding the extent and direction of the future development of various areas of the city, which can be accomplished through predicting the future trends of urban development. Using the potentials of the available lands in the process of development can control the development of the city in order to prevent irregular and unchecked development. Finally, the map of the city and the trend of the development of this city indicate a radial expansion. Considering the limitations in the population growth of this city, the porous development inside the city, and then the suburban towns around the city, increasing the number of floors of the buildings, increasing the density, and utilizing vertical development, or a combination of these methods can be a logical solution for preventing the irregular and unchecked development of this city.
