.An Analysis of the Status of Green Landscape with Urban Sustainable Development Case Study: Isfahan City Areas

Green spaces in urban environments are considered as one of the criteria for sustainable urban development of communities and at the same time they are criteria for improving the quality of living space. Therefore, its balanced distribution and distribution throughout the city is very important. In the present study, a descriptive-quantitative and analytical approach has been attempted to assess the current status and identify priorities for the development of these spaces in urban areas. The results showed that per capita urban green space in Isfahan has increased from 15.5 m 2 in 2003 to 27.4 m 2 in 2011. But with this per capita increase, the per capita gap between the affluent and deprived areas has also dramatically increased and the imbalance in the spatial distribution of urban parks has worsened. The statistical population of the study consists of 14 areas of Isfahan city which are ranked based on 12 indicators. Therefore, the indices studied using TOPSIS model are used as a multi-criteria decision making method and are finally mapped using GIS at five levels (highly developed, developed, relatively developed, deprived, highly deprived). The results show that land use distribution in urban areas of Isfahan is not balanced
