Abstract

Spatial analysis is an approach methodological that reimburse how mutual relations rooting differences, similarities of phenomena and events within the framework geographic views. Spatial analysis can lead to a new theory thorough review of how to change phenomena to discover locative order of it. Resilience is the system capacity upgrade for retrieval and ability, adaptation and tolerance with existing conditions after the events. It will come irreparable damage on the various dimensions of social, economic life of societies, providing in the absence of resilient urban spaces and lack of prediction and readiness. The purpose of this study is order to achieving appropriate solution with analysis of resilience in the social, economic, institutional and physical – substructure dimension in ten regions of Tabriz. The population of the study is urban experts in Tabriz regions were chosen based on Cochran model module obtained by random sampling. This study has been done using quantitative methods with Spas software (Levene) and exploratory – descriptive type. According to the finding of the study, there are significant differences between the mean of these areas and the obtained value of F (2.3) and the significant level (0.028) with degree of freedom (60.6) at the level of 0.05. District 9 with the highest average (64) has high resilience and the four and seven regions with the mean (50.28 and 49.85) have the least resiliency. Therefore, city managers will prioritize policies and planning appropriately to promote less resilient areas, due to different resilience in different areas.
