Analysis of spatial distribution of hospital centers and provide Optimal Access Pattern (Case Study: Marand City)

Allocation of space to service utilities is one of the most important tasks of urban planners. hospital centers in cities is important services applications. Therefore, its placement in optimal locations with proper access can play an important role in public health and public health. On the other hand, Disproportionate distribution of these centers in time-cost and cost-effective situations, in addition to increasing urban transportation problems, sometimes threatens the security of citizens.The main objective of this research is to evaluate the distribution of health centers and to identify deprived areas of these services in the studied area. This research is descriptive-analytical in terms of the nature of the research and in terms of the purpose of developmental applied. In line with the goal, six related variables were identified that included: the proximity of firefighting centers, access to communications networks, degrees, distance from the hospital Inserts available, proximity to regional parks, slope and distance from its faults.Indicators was valued using the hierarchical analysis model.By overlapping the layers, the location for hospital establishment in the city was determined. Based on the results of the research in , 6 sites for the construction of hospital centers were identified in order of priority.It should be noted that according to population of the city and its Hinterland at least three Hospitals are needed.Considering the total number of effective measures in the location of hospital centers place number 5 and also 2 places from 1 to 1 3 It is proposed to build these centers in Marand.
