Abstract :

Free zones in the world have been created as a window for synchronization and economic interconnection of countries with the global economy, the growth and change in exports and benefit from domestic and foreign investment, in order to achieve the objectives of economic development, employment, and technology transfer. With the growth in the population of cities that are affected by some factors, such as a free zone, activities and investment are highly developed and the physical organization of cities is undergoing radical changes. The purpose of this study is to assess and analyze the physical effects of the free zone on the growth of Chabahar and the consequences of these developments at the present time. The research method is descriptive-analytics. Research data is collected through government documents, statistics and satellite imagery. In order to understand the city's development of Landsat satellite images in the years (1991, 2001, and 2014), the Envi 4.8 application was used and the demographic trends from 1335 to 1390 were analyzed using the Moran and Holdren quantitative methods. The results of the research showed that the physical development and expansion of Chabahar marginalization increased from 859 hectares in 1991 to 991 hectares in 2001 according to Landsat satellite imagery. In 2014, it grew more intense and increased to 1646 hectares. Also, the results of the Holdren quantitative method show that%73 of urban growth is related to population growth and%27 of it is related to horizontal and spiral growth. Moran coefficient in 2011 was equal to -0.32, which indicates that Chabahar's growth pattern was a random pattern this year.
