Due to the earthquake damage caused by the earthquake, one of the most important issues which is considered by the authorities after the earthquake is the water supply of citizens of a city. Unfortunately, in many cities of Iran, the management of the crisis, especially concerning drinking water, is not noticed in the aftermath of the various events that the metropolitan is considering. due to the great importance of this issue, in this study, suitable spaces to locate water emergency reservoirs in shiraz, based on criteria urban public open spaces (park and green space, open space Stadium, city Squares), Population density (near Population block whit high Population density), roads network (access to roads high way, main road, minor road), high-risk centers against Earthquake (wearing texture areas in the slopes areas Close to the fault, Historical points of the earthquake) Based on the hierarchical analysis Process (AHP) and decision support system, GIS, (using of transformation functions of a polygon to point, vector to raster, Euclidean distance, reclassify and the functions of a scalar subset to be evaluated. The results of this study suggest the locations with the scores of 7,8,9, that located mainly in destroyed texture areas, regions with high population density and urban main roads of Shiraz as the alternatives for locating of the city's emergency water Resviors.
