VulneraCity is a database of unique urban vulnerability drivers for six different hazards (Coastal flooding, Pluvial flooding, Earthquakes, Heatwaves, Drought, Waterborne diseases), providing descriptions, classifications, and sources. The drivers are collected from over 450 individual studies, based on a systematic literature review.
