#' @title Brewer's Sparrow site data (line-transect survey)
#'
#' \code{Rdistance} contains four example datasets: two collected using a
#' line-transect survey (i.e., \code{\link{sparrowDetectionData}} and
#' \code{\link{sparrowSiteData}}) and two collected using a point-transect
#' (sometimes called a point count) survey (i.e.,
#' \code{\link{thrasherDetectionData}} and \code{\link{thrasherSiteData}}).
#' These datasets demonstrate the type and format of input data required by
#' \code{Rdistance} to estimate a detection function and abundance from
#' distance sampling data collected by surveying line transects or point
#' transects. They also allow the user to step through the tutorials described
#' in the package vignettes. Only the detection data is needed to fit a
#' detection function (if there are no covariates in the detection function;
#' see \code{\link{dfuncEstim}}), but both detection and
#' the additional site data are needed to estimate abundance (or to include
#' site-level covariates in the detection function; see
#' \code{\link{abundEstim}}).
#'
#' Line transect (sparrow) data come from 72 transects, each 500 meters long,
#' surveyed for Brewer's Sparrows by the Wyoming Cooperative Fish & Wildlife
#' Research Unit in 2012.
#'
#' Point transect (thrasher) data come from 120 points surveyed for Sage
#' Thrashers by the Wyoming Cooperative Fish & Wildlife Research Unit in 2013.
#'
#' See the package vignettes for \code{Rdistance} tutorials using these
#' datasets.

#' @docType data
#'
#' @format A data.frame containing 72 rows and 8 columns. Each row represents
#' a site (transect) surveyed. Column descriptions: \enumerate{ \item
#' \code{siteID}: Factor (72 levels), the site or transect surveyed. \item
#' \code{length}: Number, the length (m) of each transect. Use the same units
#' for all distance measurements. \item \code{observer}: Factor (five levels),
#' identity of the observer who surveyed the transect. \item \code{bare}:
#' Number, the mean bare ground cover (\%) within 100 m of each transect.
#' \item \code{herb}: Number, the mean herbaceous cover (\%) within 100 m of
#' each transect. \item \code{shrub}: Number, the mean shrub cover (\%) within
#' 100 m of each transect. \item \code{height}: Number, the mean shrub height
#' (cm) within 100 m of each transect. \item \code{shrubclass}: Factor (two
#' levels), class is "Low"" when shrub cover is < 10\%, "High" otherwise. }
