Abstract

With increasing population growth, lack of adequate service centers, and confusion in the distribution and location of urban facilities are major issues facing cities. The perspective of spatial development shows the spatial imbalances of population concentration and inequality in the use of urban services and facilities in the 15 districts of Isfahan. In line with such a necessity, observing spatial justice and achieving equal opportunities is one of the main priorities in these fifteen regions. The purpose of this study is to investigate and determine the allocation and concentration of urban resources and services with emphasis on the approach of spatial inequality in fifteen regions. The results showed that the areas with very good enjoyment included areas (1 and 3), areas with relatively good enjoyment including areas (8, 2, 9, 13, 5, 6 and 10) and areas with poor enjoyment including Areas (2, 15, 4 and 12) and for the spatial distribution of services and facilities in the fifteen districts of Isfahan, the Moran correlation model was used. While the results based on this model showed that the Moran coefficient for health care centers showed the number 0.04492 percent. But for service centers, the amount of this type of index was 0.294227 percent and its distribution pattern was distributed in cluster mode. The Moran coefficient for commercial and economic centers was equal to 0.032551 percent and the distribution pattern of spatial autocorrelation of this type of service was randomly distributed and the Moran coefficient was 0.02551 percent and the self-correlation distribution pattern of transportation centers was The citation was distributed as a cluster in the fifteen regions of Isfahan and its Moran coefficient showed the number 0.22551%.
