The present article seeks to study and level the areas of Kashan city based on the level of smart city indicators.Method: This article is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-analytical in nature, in which indicators are examined both objectively and Subjectively.

In the subjective dimension, the questionnaire method was used and in the objective dimension, the statistics of the responsible centers were used. Questionnaire data were collected and classified using stratified random sampling method and objective data were analyzed using TOPSIS technique and entropy weighting method.Findings: The general results of the studies show that there is a clear difference between the regions of  Kashan in terms of having smart city indicators, among which regions 2 and 4 have a more favorable situation and region 5 has a more unfavorable situation. Regression analysis indicates that the smart life index with a beta coefficient of 0.68 is more effective in creating a smart city than other indicators and Pearson correlation analysis shows that there is a positive and significant relationship between this index and other indicators.Conclusion: Regarding the development of Kashan city based on smart city indicators, it is necessary to pay special attention to low-ranking areas.  Manuscript profile
