Good day!

Would you know any links to sites/videos/documents of this software's tutorial?

Your help is very much appreciated.

Thank you.

There are two answers to this question.

The first place to visit to learn how to use the software is not online, but instead the Users Guide that is part of the download.  There are a number of examples of analyses to perform.

The other source of tutorial information is online material I will be developing over the next three months.  We will be creating a new section of the http://distancesampling.org website, devoted to not just one, but a series of vignettes, or tutorials describing the performance of a series of tasks with Distance; such as specifying detection functions, interpreting goodness-of-fit statistics, model selection tools, special topics such as point transects; and many other things.  These will be posted onto the distancesampling.org website and I will post notices to this list as they become available.

There is also a set of vignettes describing use of distance sampling software associated with the R software at the bottom of http://distancesampling.org/R/index.html  This list will also be growing with time.

Thank you so much. I am currently researching on my thesis topic and this is one of the tools that I was advised to use for my analysis. 

I'm looking forward to your tutorials. 

Thank you again.
