Urban resilience has become the subject of several scientific research in order to put the concept into operation as it is an important feature of a city’s sustainability. Against this background, the proximity of industrial activity to the urban environment of the city of Batna, located in the North East of Algeria, has contributed to the rise of the concept of industrial risk, the prevention of which, demonstrates the fundamental role of urban resilience in the sustainable management of risk and urban disaster situations. This article is part of a Modeling of Application Data with Spatio-temporal features (MADS) approach for a territorialisation of integrated urban resilience with a view to meet the coordination needs amongst various highly interdependent actors and promote the development of integrated solutions that contribute to the city’s resilience.
