Description: Creates survey designs for distance sampling surveys.
These designs can be assessed for various effort and coverage
statistics. Once the user is satisfied with the design
characteristics they can generate a set of transects to use in
their distance sampling survey. Many of the designs implemented
in this R package were first made available in our 'Distance'
for Windows software and are detailed in Chapter 7 of Advanced
Distance Sampling, Buckland et. al. (2008, ISBN-13:
978-0199225873). Find out more about estimating animal/plant
abundance with distance sampling at
