4. Project Objective
To develop an online tool that quantifies the resilience of an urban centre to extreme hydro-meteorological events
Use manageable (size) and, if possible, publicly accessible datasets as tool input

5. Study Areas
London (small city)
Toronto (large city)
November 3, 2015

6. London Data
Engineered structures (road, rail, bridges, water treatment plants, electrical stations)
Building envelopes classified into economic sectors (industrial, institutional, residential, emergency)
Socio-economic data static, neighbourhood profile (labour force by sector, population, employment/unemployment rate)

7. Toronto Data Engineered structures (? Not sure what is available)
Building envelopes classified into economic sectors (industrial, institutional, residential, emergency)
Socio-economic data by month, city scale (retail sales, welfare, bankruptcies, public transit ridership, real estate, population, labour force, employment/unemployment rate)
Socio-economic data static, by ward (labour force by sector, population, employment/unemployment rate)

14. Future Plans – Linking Data
Assign socio-economic data to neighbourhoods profiles (London) and wards (Toronto)
London: Link water levels from flood inundation maps to engineering and socio- economic data
Toronto: Link water levels/rainfall magnitudes of previous flooding events to engineering and socio-economic data
