The resilience metric combines several system performance measures that represent the physical and socioeconomic impacts to an urban system.

The data used to compute the physical system performance measures are obtained from the following sources:
The data required to compute the socioeconomic system performance measures are Census profiles acquired from Statistics Canada.
