dsm - Density surface modelling

What is dsm?

dsm provides a Generalized Additive Model (GAM)-based approach to calculate spatially-explicit estimates of animal abundance from distance sampling (also presence/absence and strip transect) data. Several utility functions are provided for model checking, plotting and variance estimation.

Using dsm

A quick introduction to how to use the package can be found on the distance sampling website.
