The WGS Technology Radar is a study of emerging technologies across multiple fields and sectors, with over 150 technologies being identified, illustrated, described and evaluated. Each technology represents a future possibility and attempts to estimate when widespread global use might be reached. Decades of scientific discoveries have created a surge in development across multiple sectors, and our relationship with these technologies impacts our everyday lives. We invite you to browse through these technologies and envision the future.

The tool enables you to assess a city’s resilience level through a comprehensive and integrated assessment framework, based on the exposure to hazards, vulnerabilities, and the institutional capacity to respond, recover, and transform. The framework provides a composite index based on 131 key performance indicators (KPIs) that cover 36 dimensions, as well as an institutional readiness checklist.
