Popis: Climate change-associated disasters have become a significant concern, principally when affecting urban areas. Assessing these regions' resilience to strengthen their disaster management is crucial, especially in the areas vulnerable to windstorms, one of Spain's most critical disasters. Smart cities and machine learning offer promising solutions to manage disasters, but accurately estimating economic losses from windstorms can be difficult due to the unique characteristics of each region and limited data. This study proposes utilizing ML classification models to enhance disaster resilience by analyzing publicly available data on windstorms in the Spanish areas. This approach can help decision-makers make informed decisions regarding preparedness and mitigation actions, ultimately creating a more resilient urban environment that can better withstand windstorms in the future.
