System using GIS and RS performed one of the newest methods in land evaluation and land preparations are projects. Therefore, to inform users the full capabilities and limitations of the GIS and RS tools in preparation programs and land management in order to avoid inaccurate assessment will be necessary. This study assessed agricultural land management using GIS and RS tools was conducted in Isfahan. Methods “descriptive” of the quantitative models used. Population of the study, including the city of Isfahan province Be. And finally to provide part of the information needs agricultural sector, estimated level of agricultural lands and preparing map Isfahan province using GIS has been drawn. The results show that, the city of the province in terms of area of agricultural lands were classified in four levels that city (Isfahan), Located in the First level, Naeen, Khomeini Shahr, Lenjan Khansar in the Fourth level and other. Cities are located between these two levels.

The study of urban development and recognizing the cities’ weaknesses and strengths, potentials and shortcomings provide a suitable basis for providing strategies and applying appropriate urban development plans, as well as establishing a balanced urban network system. The separate study of the development of each urban settlement on regional scale (province) is not possible due to the diversity of their characteristics and, if done, the results would not be desirable. Therefore, it is possible to categorize urban points according to their developmental level by accessing certain amount of information about urban development and then classifying these points in different ways. Various methods exist in this regard, such as taxonomic analysis (1), Guttman scalogram (2), factor analysis (3), cluster analysis (4), and so on. In this paper, 25 normalized urban development indexes are selected, and using factor analysis method which is one of the most complex and at the same time one of the best methods of classification, the considered indexes and their reduction were analyzed through several more meaningful factors. Then, based on the obtained results (factor scores) and using the cluster analysis method, the classification of the cities of Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province in terms of the level of development into homogeneous and similar groups has been carried out.
