Abstract :

The aim of the research is to analyze the effective factors in the development of sports activities based on the principles of land use and with a future research approach. For this purpose, the city of Tehran was chosen as the pilot project. In the input phase, PESTEL analysis was used for environmental scanning, and in the analysis phase, the global business model was used. For data analysis, 23 experts and Delphi method were used. After the theoretical saturation and confirmation (98%) of the experts, the questionnaire was distributed among them to measure the variables based on the degree of influence and effectiveness; then the data was entered into MicMac software and one 18x18 matrix was formed. The results showed that the matrix filling index is 96.197%, which indicates the high influence of the identified factors on each other. The variables were divided into 4 types based on the placement type; and the variables "Investment in sports", "Community income level", "Government financial aid" and "Education and promotion of sports culture"were the most influential in the studied system. Also, 6 variables "unemployment rate",distribution and distribution of sports spaces and venues","per capita and infrastructures","cultivation and heroism","interest and support of local communities" and "performance in international arenas" have more impact than effectiveness. And are the driving variables of the system. The "climate and geography" variable has the least role in direct and indirect effects. According to the results, the status of sports activities in Tehran is somewhat "unstable" based on the environmental approach,
