Data belonging to "Successful invasion: camera trap distance sampling reveals higher density for invasive raccoon dog compared to native mesopredators"

Data files (comma separated text files) containing the camera data (CameraData) containing the information on camera trap placements in the various sites and their operation time in days and aperture, the distance sampling data (DistanceData) containing the information on the species and distance detected for each 1s time interval in front of each camera, and the trigger data (TriggerData) containing the time stamps for the pictures taken of each species with each camera, collected in the years 2020 and 2021 in southern Finland. The repository further contains an R script "distanceSamplingScript" which uses the reposited above-described files for analysis reported in the publication "Successful invasion: camera trap distance sampling reveals higher density for invasive raccoon dog compared to native mesopredators" https://doi.org/10.1007/s10530-024-03323-4. The R script has been confirmed to run in R version 4.3.3 using packages "activity" vs 1.3.4 and "Distance" vs 1.0.9
