Abstract

The present study seeks to introduce the capabilities and advantages of the strategic model of Meta- Swot in the form of relevant software in wetland planning. The resource is based on resource-based theory (RBV). This theory believes that unique resources and capabilities form the main factor of continuous and sustainable competitive advantage. Accordingly, wetlands can identify their sustainable competitive advantages by programming in principle and recognizing valuable, irreplaceable, rare, and irreplaceable (VRIO) resources and capabilities compared to competitors. At first, the Environment Protection Organization’s aim was to extract in related with wetland, then each of the goals prioritized by experts. Then Wetland Strategic Indicators to succession determined and weighted by Delphi and technique like and indicators for evaluation was identified. We produced strategic-managerial map. According to assessment of resource capability, we extracted proper indicators and effective environmental factors in  Jazmoorian Strategic Planning. strategic map based on resources and environmental factors. Finally judging by strategic-managerial plans for achieving strategies was done. Results show that by using  native management with protection approach by co-ownership local communities in management processes can be suggested such as best management style at the time of drought and water crisis. Dam construction with bubble size: 4.4 and coordinates (1.3,6.5), population with bubble size and coordinates (0.3,8.3), drilling well with bubble size and coordinates (0.3,8.3) and most importantly, land use changing with bubble size 6.5 and coordinates (1.3,9.8), has the highest strategic fit.
