Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the compatibility and desirability of land uses of Abbasabad of Tehran with other land uses around this area. Green infrastructure can be defined as a network of man-made and ecosystem-managed ecosystems that together enhance ecosystem health and resilience and contribute to biodiversity. The most important goal of urban land use planning is the proper location of land uses and the separation of incompatible land uses. The research method is descriptive-analytical and the criteria affecting the compatibility have been determined using documentary and library studies. The desirability of the criteria was determined using the fuzzy model. Compatibility and utility maps were prepared in ArcGIS environment and the distances of each layer along with their standardization were calculated using the Raster Calculator command. Finally, the final fuzzy classified map was obtained. The use of fuzzy model based on the table of urban land use compatibility and its combination with land use criteria is one of the innovations of this research. The results showed that according to the selection criteria, the eastern, northeastern and western regions of Abbasabad lands have unsuitable zones; the southeast has good zones and the central part has moderate zones. Other segments were also classified as poorly valued.
