Özet:

 This study proposes a spatial multicriteria analysis that can be implemented by the micro zonation technique for any city for the assessment of the vulnerability to the physical environment. Niğde, as the case study, recently had pecuniary damages after a medium-sized earthquake. Although it is not located in the earthquake zone, its damage made it necessary to analyze the vulnerability of the city center, where the population density is the highest. This proposed approach aims that the interventions needed to increase urban resilience in a practical way conducted by the institutions responsible for urban planning so that the damage is reduced in a probable earthquake. According to the results obtained, areas with high vulnerability and areas that need urgent intervention to be made resilient were identified. The population living in the areas that need urgent intervention was determined to constitute approximately one-fifth of the total population of the province.

 Bu çalışma, tüm kentlerde mikrobölgeleme tekniği kullanarak uygulanabilecek, fiziksel çevrede kırılganlığın değerlendirilmesi için bir mekansal çoklu kriter analizi önermektedir. Çalışma alanı olan Niğde, yakın zamanda yaşanan orta büyüklükteki depremden sonra maddi zarar almıştır. Deprem bölgesinde yer almamasına rağmen zarar görmesi, nüfus yoğunluğunun en fazla olduğu kent merkezinin kırılganlığının analiz edilmesini gerekli kılmıştır. Önerilen bu yaklaşım, kentsel dirençliliği artırmak için gerekli müdahalelerin pratik bir şekilde kentsel planlamadan sorumlu kurumlar tarafından yapılmasını ve olası bir depremde hasarın azaltılmasını amaçlamaktadır. Analiz sonucu elde edilen bulgulara göre kırılganlığı yüksek, acil müdahale gerektiren ve dirençli hale getirilmesi gereken alanlar saptanmıştır. Acil müdahale gerektiren alanlarda yaşayan nüfusun, ilin toplam nüfusunun yaklaşık beşte birini oluşturduğu belirlenmiştir.
