Abstract
With the beginning of the era of urbanization and its increasing development, other cities are known as the most important human settlements.Therefore, research needs assessment and prioritization of research, according to the problems of the cities, can be an effective step in recognizing and solving the existing problems. The aim of this research is to assess the research needs of geography and urban planning and prioritize them. The research method is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive and analytical in terms of methodology. The statistical population of the research includes 15 professors and doctoral students in the field of geography and urban planning in Yoda, whose opinions have been used. The results obtained from the opinions of the statistical community led to the compilation of 58 research titles, each of these titles in the form of five groups ((socio-cultural), ((ecology and environment), ((financial and economic)), ((physical and spatial) and infrastructure) and (politics, management and technology) were categorized. In order to weight and rank these issues, Shannon's entropy method has been used. In the following, after the weight ranking, each of the subjects was examined in terms of the frequency of publication of articles during the period of 1390-1399 in the indexing database of scientific articles .The results of prioritizing and weighting the subjects and examining the number of published articles showed that the economic subject category with a weighted average of 0.01729 has the highest weight, and among the subjects independently, the highest weight is related to the subject of public participation and urban democracy in management. It was a city with a weight of 0.01740.In terms of the number of articles, the most published articles are related to political, managerial and technological topics with 433,014 articles and the least articles are related to economic topics with 103,436 articles
