Computes Effective Strip Width (ESW) for line-transect detection functions, or the analogous Effective Detection Radius (EDR) for point-transect detection functions.
effectiveDistance(object, newdata = NULL)If newdata is present, the returned value is 
a vector of effective sampling distances for values of the 
covariates in newdata with length equal to 
the number of rows in newdata. 
If newdata is NULL, the returned value is a vector of effective
sampling distances associated with covariate values in object and has 
the same number of detected groups.  The returned vector 
has measurement units, i.e., object$outputUnits.
An Rdistance model frame or fitted distance function,
normally produced by a call to dfuncEstim.
A data frame containing new values for 
covariates at which either
ESW's or EDR's will be computed. If NULL and 
  object contains covariates, the  
  covariates stored in
  object are used (like predict.lm).
  If not NULL, covariate values in newdata
  are used. 
  See Value section for more information.
Serves as a wrapper for 
ESW and EDR.
