Abstract
Problem statement: In recent years, the evaluation of the ecological potential of the land is the same as the identification of the region's capabilities, capabilities, opportunities and limitations in terms of sustainable and unstable ecological resources for all uses. The importance of evaluating the ecological potential of the land is to the extent that if the potential land lacks ecological potential suitable for a specific use (even if there is an economic-social need for that use), the implementation of that plan will not only improve the environmental condition of the region, Rather, it will bring more destruction to the environment.
Purpose: Based on this, the purpose of the current research is to evaluate the ecological potential of the coastal township of Kanark based on the characteristics of the natural environment. The current research is of an applied type and its method is descriptive-analytical. This study was conducted with the aim of determining the ecological potential of Konark coastal township based on the characteristics of the natural environment for the development of settlements as a suitable platform for any planning regarding the type of land use. For the human life and the variety of attractions, landscapes, beaches, etc., the coastal township of Konark has to evaluate its ecological capacity.
Method: To evaluate the ecological power of Konark coastal township from 14 criteria including; Communication network, main rivers, tributary waterways, density of vegetation, fault, height, slope, direction of slope, land use, soil erosion, temperature, humidity, earthquake center and airport have been used. Therefore, this research has four stages: First part: First, the preparation and preparation of the layers was done. The second part: The extracted layers are standardized using the fuzzy membership function method. Third part: In the next step, the weight of each layer has been calculated using the ANP method.
