Abstract

As the main component of urban problems, urban waterlogging disasters restrict the development of urbanization and the sustainable development of cities. Based on the three core characteristics of resilient cities, including adaptability, coping ability and recovery, this paper uses an entropy method to establish an urban resilience evaluation index system for waterlogging disasters, which consists of disaster-causing, disaster-resistant and disaster-bearing factors. Then, the resilience index of distinct districts in Shenzhen against waterlogging disasters is analyzed based on GIS technology, and the relevant improvement strategies are proposed. The results show that the resilience level from high to low is Baoan District, Futian District, Nanshan District, Longgang District, Longhua District, Luohu District, Guangming District, Pingshan District, Dapeng New District and Yantian District, and the urban resilience level can be improved by updating urban drainage facilities, strengthening ecological protection and environmental construction, and improving urban disaster-bearing soft systems.
