Resumo

Urban quality of life is crucial for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). As cities worldwide strive to enhance this, it becomes essential to track their progress in Environmental Urban Quality of Life (EUQoL). This review examines the key performance criteria and indicators from 47 articles on the Science Direct Platform between 2019 and 2022. We explore nine decision-making techniques integrated with Geographic Information System (GIS) to assess EUQoL. These methods include Analytic Hierarchy Process, Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution, Combined Compromise Solution, Best Worst Method, Weighted Aggregated Sum Product Assessment, Preference Ranking Method for Enrichment Evaluation, VIsekriterijumsko Kompromisno Rangiranje, Elimination and Choice Translating Reality, and Multiattribute Value Theory. Our findings provide a rich insight into EUQoL assessment tools, offering a robust guide for policymakers and urban planners to elevate city living standards.
