| Setting the development and deprivation degree of statistical regions, neighborhoods, districts and blocks (Neighborhood Planning Units (NPU)) in city scale is one of the basic and main stages of organizing and empowering studies of the informal settlements. They have been designed with the aim of identifying the urban downstream neighborhoods, determining and selecting the “prioritized neighborhoods” in order to conduct the 3rd, 4th and 5th stages studies. Recent studies indicate that using of only one or two models with the mixed indexes has not been successful and achieving the desired result depends on using different statistical and mathematical models sorted based on various indexes. Then the achieved results of various models were combined to each other through considering strategies for achieving strong and reliable results on identification and suggestion of the target neighborhoods. In this study, a number of 65 statistical areas of Gonbad-e Kavus city were analyzed based on four types of indexes including anatomical, demographic economic and social (totally 33 indexes) using various statistical and mathematical models (e.g. the relative frequency, regression, AHP, taxonomy, human development index of the United Nations and opinions of experts). Finally, the target neighborhoods were determined through combining the results of the models and setting the related strategies. Therefore, the offered process and model in this study can be a basis for other researchers and managers who are involved with the planning and organizing the informal settlements. |
