A new proposed model of EMOLUP for assessing of ecological capability of different utilizations and land use planning in Sepidan Township, Iran

The optimum use and appropriate management of renewable resources, with dynamic characteristics, needs to evaluate classify the ecological capability environment its socio-economic conditions. Land planning (LUP) is an iterative process based on dialogue amongst all stakeholders aiming at negotiation decision for a sustainable form land in rural areas as well initiating monitoring implementation. main objective this paper implementation integration quantitative model namely EMOLUP (Eco-Socioeconomic Model Use Planning) Sepidan Township Fars province Iran. Therefore, two steps were prepared new model: I. Ecological evaluation different uses. This step composed geometric mean method instead Boolean MCE methods. II. prioritizing various has been intersecting maps planning, scenarios (economic social). Then, it was compared current qualitative Also, used calibrating modifying proposed models. Results show using better than models, calibrated (with overall accuracy > 63 kappa index 0.39 uses) best among results showed that average EPM erosion = 0.31) study area. We confirmed can contribute understand regions world.
