Abstract

The most important function of green spaces and parks is to cope with the negative effects of industrial development and incorrect application of technology in order to increase the quality of life cities. Green spaces and its effect in the cities is inevitable, so it is not possible to remain sustainable cities without considering green spaces. Hence, a targeted program is required for developing these spaces in the today towns. For this purpose, advanced tools and techniques have been devised for more efficient analysis. One of these tools is decision and planning support systems. The purpose of this study is to develop a strategic plan for locating the neighborhood's parks. Optimal site selection pattern of neighborhood parks in region 2 Zahedan was done by using the SWOT technique, AHP and geographical information systems (GIS). This descriptive- analytical research was provided to classify and analyze data used by models such as SWOT, FUZZY AHP and overlay index (IO). GIS program has been used to creat the database, analyze data and generate maps and weighting of criteria was conducted in the Expert Choice software. The results of prioritize measures show that proximity to residential centers, as sub-index of physical index with relative weight 0.368, and  population density, as sub-index of social with relative weight 0.123, have highest priority in site selection neighborhood’s parks. Also, results include strategies and policies of neighborhood parks development in Zahedan and the final map of optimum locations for construction of new neighborhood's parks in region 2 Zahedan.
