  One of the consequences of the global process of urban growth and development is the formation of poor neighborhoods in the margins of the cities and is one of the issues that has always been the subject of studying and planning international forums in many cities around the world. To address this, the empowerment approach in the 1980s, which considers informal communities not as a dilemma but as a social asset, is to replace empowerment with the culture of poverty. Therefore, the present research studies the success rate of organizing and empowering informal settlements in Zahedan city using quantitative and qualitative statistical methods and qualitative approaches of experts. This research is applied in terms of purpose and nature, which has been used in field studies by interviewing experts. The results of the research show that Zahedan's organization and empowerment plan in the unofficial context of the city according to the financial and municipal funds and citizen's economic capacity are not developed.

  Background and Objective: Waste management, which is one of the most important tasks of metropolitan urban management around the world, is also one of the most complex and costly problems of urban management. Precise principles of locating different activities in the city Due to the nature of urban problems are very much solved. Lack of proper management and not choosing the right location for landfilling municipal waste creates problems for the environment. Material and Methodology: In this paper, method 3 is presented with the aim of modeling municipal landfills in QGIS environment in Zahedan city. First, the effective criteria in selecting the burial site according to the conditions of the region and with the opinion of experts (Delphi questionnaire) were examined and 18 sub-criteria were determined in two groups, ecological criteria and socio-economic criteria. All steps, except for determining the weight and examining the internal relationships of the criteria, were coded in the QGIS open source software and the location system of the municipal waste landfill was developed in the open source context. Findings: QGIS 3.16 software was used to build a landfill for Zahedan landfill. It is possible to use open source software to develop numerical numerical models in the process of assessing the suitability of land for landfill use. In general, the use of geographic information systems, the possibility of spatial analysis, analysis and storage, definition Different functions have provided appropriate visual representation in order to locate with different criteria, descriptive information of spatial and non-spatial data. Discussion and Conclusion: The results obtained in QGIS software are completely consistent with the results obtained from the implementation of the process in ARC GIS software.

  In recent decades, Iran's cities, such as other cities of the third world countries have encountered significant transformations and in a short-term period, they have reached the manifold of their primary widths. Zahedan, during its 100 year life, has developed in an unbalanced way and has faced a quick development. The 32.5 time development of its population and 34 time development of its width indicate this issue compared to the first census in such a way that the development of this city has been in the horizontal direction and the continuous development of urban constructions have caused the ugly development of the city. Accordingly, in the present study, the correlation between the population and the amount of development and urban sprawl is investigated in Zahedan city using Shannon's and Holden's Entropy Models and Floor Area Ratio (FAR). The findings of the research indicate that according to Holden's model, Zahedan has been suffering the ugly urban development (sprawl) during the period of conducting the study. The entropy coefficient scores indicate the sprawl of Zahedan. Regarding the development of the value gap due to horizontal development and urban sprawl, theSmart and Compact City model is considered as a desired one for future expansion of Zahedan.

The purpose of this study is spatial analysis of urban smart city indicators in Zahedan. According to the objectives of the research, the type ofresearch is applied and the research method is descriptive-analytical.The method of data collection and information is documentary and survey.Since the spatial analysis of smart city indicators is also a multi-criteria decision-making problem, therefore, in the present study, the Vikor multi-criteria decision-making model as well as the pairwise weighting with the hierarchical analysis model Fuzzy (FAHP) has taken place.The results of one-sample t-test showed that the indicators of smart city in Zahedan are all below the desired average (3)and are in an unfavorable situation. Smart Dynamics Index with an average of 2.832, Smart People Index with an average of2.809, Smart Life Index with an average of2.755, Intelligent Environment Index with an average of2.769 and Smart Governance Index with an average of 2.887are all in an unfavorable situation.The results of Vickor model also show that region1 with a weight value of 0.087 is in the first priority. In other words, this region is in the best condition in terms of smart city indicators.Zone 2 with a weight of 0.165 is in the second priority, Zone5with a weight of0.324 is in the third priority, Zone with a weight of 0.787 is in the fourth priority and Zone 4 with a weight of 0.857 is in the last priority.The results show that the areas of Zahedan city are in an unbalanced situation in terms of smart city indicators and in thi regard, the five areas of the city are very different from each other.Keywords: Spatial Analysis, Smart City, Zahedan City.

  Viability refers to an urban system in which the social, physical, and mental health and quality of life of all its inhabitants are taken into consideration. On the other hand، the issue of citizen participation in the economic and social development of cities, has been considered in urban development studies and planning since several decades. Therefore, it will be a livable society that cares about the needs of the people of that society, respects their demands, and does not neglect the participation of citizens in the affairs of the city. The purpose of this article is to identify the relationship between social participation as one of the components of social capital and urban livability. To achieve this goal, a descriptive-analytical survey method has been used and to collect information, a researcher-made questionnaire has been applied. To analyze the research data, SPSS، GIS، super decision software has been used. The statistical population includes citizens of the five regions of Zahedan that 383 residents have been selected and studied by cluster sampling with systematic random sampling. The results of ranking the regions in livability indicators show that region 1 as a new region with a proportional distribution of land use and urban services، adequate access to educational and health services، security and urban environment is a relatively desirable region in Zahedan and region 3 with informal and turbulent housing texture is the most undesirable region in terms of social livability. The results of Pearson correlation coefficient test show high correlation between the components of social participation and the dimensions of social viability in the areas of Zahedan; this indicates that the more social participation among the citizens of Zahedan, the better the city is in terms of social viability.
