The increasing frequency of climate change and extreme weather makes the issue of urban flood vulnerability an important one. Flood disaster mitigation efforts have progressed rapidly with the utilization of technology in flood risk assessment and community preparedness. However, there is still a gap between technology and community engagement in preparedness. This study was conducted to analyze the trend of technology-based urban flood vulnerability and community preparedness integration. The study used bibliometric methods to see research trends and a systematic review of Scopus data with Biblioshiny, VOSviewer, and Convidence to identify relevant research articles. Trends in urban flood vulnerability show an increasing use of advanced technologies such as multivariate LSTM (Long Short-Term Memory) artificial neural networks, LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging), GIS (Geographic Information System), and blockchain for flood risk assessment. There are gaps in community engagement and preparedness, highlighting the need for a comprehensive approach that combines technology with community-based strategies. A balance between technology implementation and community engagement is needed to improve community preparedness and safeguard water security in flood-prone urban areas. The development of an urban flood vulnerability index can bridge the technology gap with standardized community engagement. All the articles in the study contribute greatly to the changes and improvements in flood disaster mitigation, as well as to the role of technology and preparedness. The gap between technology and community engagement in preparedness requires an urban flood vulnerability index with comprehensive strategies.
