The results of the IMM’s “Istanbul Vulnerability Map in the Fight Against Covid-19” project have been published. The fragile areas of the metropolis were determined under the four main headings. According to this; The most fragile neighborhood due to the risk of spatial expansion was Zeytinburnu Beştelsiz. Socioeconomic fragility was found to be higher in rural neighborhoods. In the index of fragility related to transport, the risk was higher in the neighborhoods through which the main transport and metro lines pass. Başakşehir Ziya Gökalp was the neighborhood most at risk due to urban density.

With the support of the Istanbul Development Agency and carried out by BİMTAŞ, one of the İBB affiliates, the project “Istanbul Vulnerability Map within the scope of the fight against COVID-19” was concluded.
Within the scope of the project, the IMM Istanbul Statistical Office compiled the data collected from 961 neighborhoods and examined the characteristics of the neighborhoods, from their socio-economic status to transport connections, from urban density to demographic structure.
The maps were created under four main titles and twenty-two subtitles. The captions used to create the maps were calculated using the equally weighted index model and contributed to the formation of the main captions. In addition, the index scores of the closed captions were calculated and mapped to each other.
These maps were intended to identify risky, fragile areas and areas that require urgent intervention, use resources rationally and optimally in the fight against the epidemic, prioritize city actors in decision-making in response areas to emergencies and contribute to response policies.
The results of the fragility map based on the risk of spatial spread, the socioeconomic fragility map, the transport-related fragility map and the urban density-related fragility map are as follows:
RISK OF SPACE SPREAD
In the Zeytinburnu Beştelsiz neighborhood, the risk levels of the inhabitants of the neighborhood were determined in the “Life Fit Home” application with an index related to the risk of spatial spread according to the legend levels on the map. The index related to the risk of spatial spread was created by calculating the height or low levels of the rate of spread of the epidemic in various regions, predicting that the density of the population living in risk areas would be high.
15 sub-indicators were used to create the index based on spatial spread risk. These indicators are the intensity of the risk of the application “Life is Home”, the number of family health centers, the number of shopping centers, the number of pharmacies, the number of places of worship, the number of service areas such as cafes , the number of markets, the number of libraries, the number of parks and green areas, the health institution. the number of tourist areas, the number of kindergartens and primary schools, the number of public transport stops and the number of commercial areas. It was observed that neighborhoods with high mobility and population density show high fragility.
Neighborhoods on the European side were found to be more risky than those on the Anatolian side, and the presence of health institutions and organizations on the European side has an effect on this situation. The neighborhoods with the greatest fragility due to the risk of spatial spread are respectively; Beştelsiz (Zeytinburnu), Kemalpaşa (Fatih), Kalenderhane (Fatih), Gökalp (Zeytinburnu), İskenderpaşa (Fatih), İsmetpaşa (Sultangazi), Mesihpaşa (Fatih), Barbaros Hayrettin Paşleriev). Gazioselievçiev).
SOCIOECONOMIC INTRODUCTION
Indicators of household size, number of households that requested IMM social assistance, number of bank branches, level of rental housing prices, income level, rate of university graduates during the development of the socioeconomic vulnerability index were used. Covid-19 epidemic process. Considering the results of the socio-economic fragility index, it was observed that the risk of the regions defined as rural neighborhoods was greater than the neighborhoods in the center of the city.
Çatalca, Silivri, Arnavutköy on the European side; Socio-economic risk was found to be high in the Beykoz, Pendik and Şile neighborhoods on the Anatolian side. In the Kadıköy, Ataşehir, Beşiktaş, Bakırköy and Şişli districts, the socio-economic fragility values were low. Fatih (Arnavutköy), Yunus Emre (Arnavutköy), Atatürk (Arnavutköy), Pirinççi (Eyüpsultan), Şahintepe (Başakşehir), Oklalı (Çatalca), Yavuz Selim (Arnavutkököy) determined the barrios Arnavutkököy (Arnavutkököy) barrios with higher socioeconomic risk.
RELATED INTRODUCTION
In the creation of the transport-related frailty index, the indicators of the number of trips that affect frailty and the risk of epidemics, the share of public transport trips in vehicle trips, the passenger density of the bus stops, the number of disabled passengers and the number of passengers over 65. According to the results of the transport-related fragility index, it was observed that the risk of neighborhoods located in the main transport hubs of Istanbul is high.
Fragility values were found to be high, especially in neighborhoods where the European Highway (E-5), the North-South Trans-European Highway (E-80) and the subway lines pass. While the neighborhoods on the European side are riskier than those on the Anatolian side, the index values were higher in the districts of Bakırköy, Bahçelievler, Zeytinburnu, Bayrampaşa and Şişli.
The neighborhoods with the greatest fragility related to transport are respectively; Mimar Sinan (Üsküdar), Aksaray (Fatih), Esentepe (Şişli), Centro (Şişli), Caferağa (Kadıköy), Osmaniye (Bakırköy), Acıbadem (Kadıköy), İçerenköy (Ataşehióçe, İçerenköy (Ataşehióçöy), Ataşehióçelany (Ataşehióçelany), Ataşehióçelany (Ataşehióçe.
FRAGILITY BY URBAN DENSITY
The indicators of urban population density, the number of shopping malls, the number of tourist areas, the number of public branches, the number of students per classroom, the number of days established on Sundays and the commercial area were used in the preparation of the urban density index. Based on the results of the urban density-related frailty index, the risk rates of neighborhoods located in the city center and sub-centers of Istanbul in general were found to be high.
It was observed that the neighborhoods in the districts of Bahçelievler, Bağcılar, Esenler, Güngören, Başakşehir, Zeytinburnu, Gaziosmanpaşa and Sultangazi where the population is concentrated, the urban dynamism is high or the commercial flow is high. On the European side, where the service sector and commercial areas are concentrated in Istanbul, the risk due to urban density was much higher than on the Anatolian side. This result was also affected by the insufficient amount of open and green areas in some districts on the European side depending on the population of the district and the size of the district, and the density of residential and commercial areas. The neighborhoods where fragility due to urban density is higher are; Ziya Gökalp (Başakşehir), Karadeniz (Gaziosmanpaşa), İçerenköy (Ataşehir), Şenlikköy (Bakırköy), Hurriyet (Bahçelievler), Şirinevler (Gaziosmanpaşa), Sokşanşliköy (Başıkırşinevöy (Başişanliköy), Sokşanşliköy (Başanşliköy), Sokısköleri (Seselvita)) was determined.
