A further book, Advanced Distance Sampling (Buckland et al. 2004), mostly covered advances since 1993. In parallel, many advances were introduced into the Distance software, summarized in Thomas et al. (2010). Since 2004, there have been many new developments, and it is becoming clearer which of these advances are of most use. In this book, we seek to cover the basic methods, and th
