Density surface modelling of distance sampling data
Description
This library implements density surface modelling of line
transect data, based on the methods of Hedley et al. (2004). Some
recent developments in the literature have also be incorporated.
Outputs are point and interval estimates of population abundance
and density.
Please note that this version of dsm WILL NOT work with the Windows
package DISTANCE. For a version that works with DISTANCE, please go

For the latest version of dsm, please use the github version at the URL
