Most of these publications often focus on particular issues, but only rarely offer an expansive overview of the variety of terms and concepts in use within the field; Moreover, the conceptions used are mostly not meaningfully relevant and in some cases even misleading (it is especially true in falsities in translating these terms and conceptions into Persian). Moreover, the new trends and approaches in modern geography, especially spatial debates and planning theories are in some way the most neglected topics in these publications. In contrary, the most interested fields in these publications are often students’ thesis-based case study ones, compiled mostly by students themselves. So, some problems have been evolved from insufficient descriptions and lack of sufficient clear and perceptible definitions. The result has been not only a growing vagueness of some terms and definitions, fundamental to applied geographies, but the misleading of growing number of students of the field. The main aim of this article is to provide a relative detailed description and discussion of the terms and concepts which are central to the theoretical debate and empirical research in spatial planning within modern applied geography.In recent decade in Iran, there have been published a vast number of books (compiled or translated) and scholar articles on different issues in various branches of geography.

Its basis is to identify areas with poor access. And position of any area to access health care services should be identified. In this study in the first stage the spatial database of the health services in software ARC-GIS (including 6 major with about 4528 lots) was formed. Then use the models to “two-step floating catchment area”, status in-dicators to each of the spaces of the city of Mashhad access areas were determined. Then using the software «spss» and the “two-step cluster analysis” method, areas of the city of Mashhad was classified according to the index access. The results of this analysis indicate a lack of conformity between the spatial distribution of population and distribution of health services.

In this context, the present research is to define criteria for assessing the environmental effects of implementing the Rural Guide Plan according to rele-vant sources. In this study the research methodology in terms of objective is applied and in terms of method it is analytical-descriptive. The major parts of the required data were collected through field studies and using questionnaires. The collected data was then fed into the statistical package for the social science (SPSS) in order to be analyzed and one sample T- test was utilized. Based on the Cochran formula, the sample size was 311 households which were determined by simple random sampling method among families in Shoosti- Zamni village, Babamidan village in Rostam County. The results of the study revealed that despite implementing the Rural Guide Plan problems such as air pollution due to the unhygienic disposal of waste, water stagnations and flooding out of water due to unprincipled constructions of the street curbs and the sidewalks and expansion of pollution caused by animal waste have considerably negative environmental impacts on the villag-es. In these regards, the main findings include the lack or defect in environmental studies during preparing plans and also defect in predicting the consequences of implementing the ten-stage pro-jects in the environments of the villages. Finally, based on the findings of the field studies and the results, some guidelines were provided as feedbacks in order to modify their approach to intervene in the natural environment and the rural environment.

Development of Karaj as a megalopolis in recent decade and lack of capability or enough time to organize urban fabrics and acceptable infrastructure has made problem in developing of the urban spaces. Due to different site selection criteria and role of each relief center in occurrence, fire station which is the most important center is considered for this study.

Firstly, the site-selection model for fire-station centers based on four effective criteria including population, network of streets, radius of work, urban land use and fourteen sub-criteria and six stations is designed. Secondly, all relative criteria and indexes were weighted and surveyed by analytical hierarchy process, fuzzy logic and spatial analysis elements and finally presented the best station and related alternatives.
