对1984年发生在澳大利亚的蝗虫（Chortoicumberterminifera（步行者））鼠疫进行了分析，以利用蝗虫发展的模拟模型确定其源区，并确定利用适当增强的卫星数据是否能够在该区域内发现适合蝗虫繁殖的个别地区。1984年鼠疫的起源地被发现在昆士兰州西南部的海峡县，卫星数据表明，除了地面调查发现的地区外，在适当的时间还有适合蝗虫繁殖的局部地区。得出的结论是，在业务基础上利用卫星数据通过监测植被状况的变化来探测适合蝗虫繁殖的地区是可行的。利用蝗虫模拟模型，可以预测繁殖过程和可能的瘟疫发展，并在适当的时候对感兴趣的地区进行地面调查。
An analysis of the 1984 loscust (Chortoicetes terminifera (Walker)) plague in Australia was undertaken to determine its source region using a simulation model of locust development and whether using appropriately enhanced satellite data, the individual areas that were suitable for locust breeding could be detected within this region. The origin of the 1984 plague was found to be in the Channel Country of southwest Queensland, and satellite data indicated that there were localised areas suitable for locust breeding at the appropriate time other than those detected by ground survey. It is concluded that it is feasible to use satellite data on an operational basis to detect areas suitable for locust breeding by monitoring changes in vegetation condition. Using the locust simulation model, the course of breeding and possible plague development can then be forecast, and ground surveys directed to the areas of interest at the appropriate time.
