I did not inquire anywhere about a way to measure human migration patterns under present-day circumstances.
I understand this is already known.
What the question concerns is a way to measure some aspects of humanity’s reaction to a global catastrophe.
“If a line of bacteria or virus could be bred to reflect human migration and habitation patterns, then it might be possible to determine a rough estimate of humanity’s robustness to the direct effects and subsequent environmental effects of a global catastrophe in terms of population resilience and migration patterns.”
I am saying that if these known-migration patterns can be engineered into a culture of bacteria, then we might be able to test how these cultures react to catastrophes, and since the culture is a reflection of human population and migration, then we may be able to get some data on how humanity writ large would react to a global catastrophe, since there is a paucity of data on “how humans react to global catastrophes”.
