Up-to-date information on land use and land cover, especially in urban areas, and awareness of its changes and developments over a period of time is very important for planners and managers. The present study aims to monitor spatial changes in land use and land cover in the urban area of Babol and Amirkola in the period 1986 to 2020 and forecasting it for 2030. The present research is applied based on the purpose and descriptive-analytical based on the nature and method. Data are taken from Landsat 5 and 8 satellite images. The Fuzzy ARTMAP model was used to detect and classify images, the cross-tab and LCM models were used to analyze land use and land cover changes, and the CA-Markov model was used to predict land use and land cover in 2030 in the IDRISI TerrSet software environment. ArcGIS software was also used to draw the final maps. The results showed that the conversion of garden-use and irrigated agriculture into the built environment has a growing trend, so that these lands have increased from 11.3% in 1986 to 19.7% in 2020 and according to the forecast by 2030, built-up land will reach 22.2% of the total area. Also, the ratio of built-up to non-built land has increased from 12.8 percent in 1986 to 24.5 percent in 2020, and is projected to reach 28.6 percent in 2030, which shows the high rate of garden and agricultural lands destruction.

One of the weaknesses of urban renewal and improvement projects is the mere physical look at worn-out structures. The aim of this study is to analyze the adaptation of worn-out tissue area to the poverty areas of Ghaemshahr city. The present study is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-analytical in terms of method. The data related to the theoretical foundations of the research have been prepared in the form of libraries and documents and the raw data of the research have been extracted from the statistical blocks of Ghaemshahr city, which has been prepared based on the 2011 census of the Statistics Center of Iran. For scale-lessing 36 urban poverty indicators, fuzzy method has been used in Excel software environment. Hot spot method has been used in ArcGIS software environment for zoning poverty. The area of the worn-out texture has also been extracted from the studies of the Ghaemshahr city renovation and improvement plan and its boundary has been drawn on the statistical blocks. With the adaptation of the worn-out tissue range and the poverty zones, it has become clear that large areas of poverty are not within the worn-out tissue range. This deprives these areas of poverty of benefits and facilities related to improvement, renovation and re-creation, and of discounts and exemptions for the payment of construction fees within the scope of worn-out tissue provided by the government and municipalities. Be useless. Currently, 296/6 hectares of the total area of urban blocks is allocated to worn-out tissue, while 1178 hectares are located in the poverty zones. Surveys show that there is an adaptation and overlap between approximately 10% of the area and population of worn-out tissue and poverty zones. Therefore, it is necessary to review the worn-out texture plan and identify new areas by using more precise methods and considering the issue of urban poverty.
