Abstract :
Today the city without green space in its various forms is no longer imaginable. Consequences of urban development and the complexity of environmental problems has caused inevitability of expansion and availability of green space. Based on this, abilities and threats for examining condition of urban green spaces and finally offering the best model in the existing condition and urgent requirement in favorite condition and analysis of these factors used for this paper. In this paper, examining index green spaces that include environmental domain, economic and social framework in the area under study are determined and with respect to the structure of area, so in order to assess the distribution of green space in the city of Zanjan was used indicator of average nearest neighbor, analytic network process model are used for analyzing the mentioned issue SWOT model used into the analysis strategy net model for integration and final strategy. The result of this research shows that the spatial distribution of green space is quite cluster, thus, according to 0.74 square meters per capita, based on the results of network analysis open green space in the area with a score of expanding green spaces in the area surface with 0.6342 is the best strategy, considering index O (cost) above mentioned and the right of priority and appropriate site selection, we can identify the best siting the area for expanding green spaces. The results of this study can help urban programmer in understanding and giving priority to urban issues and find solutions for removing these problems.
