Description: Density surface modelling of line transect data. A
        Generalized Additive Model-based approach is used 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.
