Abstract

Indicators are partial reflections of reality. Those are necessary information we use to understand present conditions in cities, make our decisions, and plan future actions. Since environmental problems such as global warming and biodiversity loss are getting worse, the importance of urban/city assessment indicators as a mirror of current situation is increasing. Urban/City assessment indicators and tools are surveyed in this research, so that it can contribute to the realization of sustainable cities.
