Abstract

The current approach in this study is descriptive-analytic, and its purpose is to measure the enjoyment level of ten regions of Tehran's first district municipality in terms of enjoyment of urban per capita application. In order to evaluate the urban sustainability area 1 of Tehran, an attempt has been made to answer the research objectives using a spatial analysis of numerical taxonomy. The statistical data of the study consisted of ten districts of Tehran’s first area, which indicate the operational characteristics of different indicators of urban per capita application, and were collected from the municipality of area 1 in Tehran. In order to do the research calculations, the data entered to the Excel program and numerical taxonomy calculations were performed to determine the sustainability of the districts in the Excel environment and, finally, using the geographical information system, the space distribution map per capita applications are drawn between the ten districts. The results of the research indicate that the ten districts of the first area in Tehran do not show a significant difference in terms of enjoyment of urban per capita application, and the sustainability of the ten districts relative to the per capita application of urban areas is in a way that one district is in a stable state, nine regions are semi-stable and the findings of the research indicate that the first area of Tehran is in a semi-sustainable state of urban development.
