Abstract
This thesis presents the Australian Animal DISease (AADIS) model - a new disease modelling approach to support emergency livestock disease preparedness and planning in Australia. AADIS expands the livestock disease modelling capabilities of the Australian Government Department of Agriculture and Water Resources from regional to national-scale. The test case disease for AADIS is foot-and-mouth disease (FMD), which is well-known for its contagiousness and economic importance.
