Abstract

This chapter analyzes and classifies the different resilience indicators available in literature, since there is no a widely accepted type of indicator that should be used to measure resilience. A list of existing resilience indicators is provided together with different classification methods, which are based on the hazard type, the temporal scale, the measurement method etc.
