Urban Design Resilience Index (UDRI).

Ecological, physical, functional and spatial.

It explains how the design of the urban form can be used to enhance resilience using objective methods at city scale. Resilience qualities observed were harmony with nature, diversity and connectivity.

[9]

Spatial Disaster Assessment Model of Social Resilience (SDAMSR).

Human, community, economic and organizational.

Developed to measure the spatial heterogeneity of social attributes that relate to disaster damage in Seoul city using objective methods. Areas with high population and persons with disability were reported to be the least resilient.

[20]

Resilience Index for Urban Drainage Systems (RIUDS).

Residential, agricultural and industrial areas.

Developed to assess the magnitude of flood damage in Jeongup city to inform flood control strategies. The relationship between flood volume and damage

werederived using objective methods.

[14]

Flood Disaster Resilience Index (FDRI).

Governance, economic, natural, physical and social.

Developed to assess resilience of Alexandria and Jakarta cities using objective and subjective methods. The index showed a need for improved adaptive capacity and planned urban systems.

[29]

Climatic Hazard Resilience Indicator for Localities (CHRIL).

Biophysical, socioeconomic, institutional, infrastructural, adaptive capacity and learning.

Developed to guide planners in streamlining urban land use policies that could enhance resilience in Taichung city. It employed objective and subjective methods and the qualities observed include rapidity, redundancy, resourcefulness and robustness. It accounted for low resilience in some locations forming a basis for resource allocation.

[1]

Flood Risk Index (FRI).

Social, economic, physical, natural and institutional.

It looks at the effectiveness of current urban management practices in improving resilience in Europe and Asian cities using subjective methods.

[30]

Integrated Flood Resilience Index (FResI).

Flood depth, flood duration, dwelling density, income per capita and sanitation.

Developed to aid better flood management design alternatives for futures climate scenarios that overwhelm current standards in Rio de Janeiro city. The study used objective data and showed that sustainable urban drainage measures and river restoration techniques are the best alternatives.

[12]

Socio-ecological Index (SI).

Social, ecological, infrastructural, economic and institutional.

Developed to map and quantify the spatial distribution of flood resilience in Eden district in South Africa. The study used objective data and qualities such as diversity, redundancy and connectivity were observed. It reported higher resilience at city center than at the periphery.

[11]

Integrated Resilience Index (IRI).

Socio-economic, physical, institutional, emergency preparedness and climate change hazards.

Developed to assess the current and future resilience of urban areas in the Nile Delta using objective methods. The study reported that 11 out of the 18 urban areas in the Nile Delta will suffer from floods.

[17]

TowardsResilience and Sustainable CityAdaptation Index (TRSCAI).

Disaster mitigation and adaptation,technological innovationand spatial management.

Developed to assess the resilience of Jakarta city in Indonesia. Data was collected using subjective methods. The study reported that orderly management of space and improving community adaptive capacity was needed.
