Place-based urban regeneration suggests the need of shift from a fragmented to a systemic model to understand the interrelation between sub-systems and the effects that a changing sub-system can pose on the others. In this context, urban regeneration strategies resilience oriented may include actions able to improve the economic, physical, social and environmental conditions and thus the human well-being of urban areas. The great quantity of information involved in the resilience assessment of urban systems require the use of Spatial Decision Support Systems (SDSS) that make possible to record, analyze and summarize data with different spatial and temporal resolution. In the present work, we described the structure of a framework for the Resilience and Disaster Risk Management. Particularly, we focused our attention on the identification of indices expressing the contribution of cultural heritage in making cities resilience toward natural hazards. These tools allow identifying replicable and scaling-up successful practices and converting the impalpable values of cultural heritage in measurable ones.

Abstract
Place-based urban regeneration suggests the need of shift from a fragmented to a systemic model to understand the interrelation between sub-systems and the effects that a changing sub-system can pose on the others. In this context, urban regeneration strategies resilience oriented may include actions able to improve the economic, physical, social and environmental conditions and thus the human well-being of urban areas. The great quantity of information involved in the resilience assessment of urban systems require the use of Spatial Decision Support Systems (SDSS) that make possible to record, analyze and summarize data with different spatial and temporal resolution. In the present work, we described the structure of a framework for the Resilience and Disaster Risk Management. Particularly, we focused our attention on the identification of indices expressing the contribution of cultural heritage in making cities resilience toward natural hazards. These tools allow identifying replicable and scaling-up successful practices and converting the impalpable values of cultural heritage in measurable ones.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
