The primary driver of this improvement is digital technology adoption, which accounts for an overwhelming 86.7% of the observed effect. Smart city projects deploy a range of digital solutions, from sensor networks and big data analytics to AI-powered surveillance, that streamline communication, speed up response times, and improve coordination during emergencies. These tools enhance situational awareness and enable city managers to take preemptive measures, significantly reducing the impact of disasters and crises.
