Abstract Along with sustainability, smartness, and resilience are two key concepts that have dominated the scientific literature and policy discourses on cities over the past 2 decades. Multiple issues related to these concepts have been studied in the literature, and there are also many tools and indicator sets for assessing the smartness or resilience of cities, neighborhoods, communities, and projects. However, limited efforts have been made to probe interactions between smart cities and urban resilience. In particular, there is a lack of tools and indicator sets for assessing the contributions of smart city solutions and technologies to urban resilience. To fill this gap, in this chapter, we propose a set of indicators related to multiple dimensions of smart cities, namely, environment, economy, people, data, living, mobility, and governance. Overall, 98 indicators have been identified, and their potential linkages to resilience abilities are also highlighted and discussed. The proposed indicators can be used to develop tools for assessing the resilience of cities using smart city indicators. This could provide further opportunities for integrating the two concepts and contribute to developing resilient smart cities that facilitate addressing societal challenges, such as climate change, environmental degradation, and inequitable access to resources. © 2023 Elsevier Inc.
