runbisonpic is a Shiny app for modeling wood bison camera trap data. The app facilitates data checking and analysis by providing a simple interface. The data are analyzed using an Bayesian Integrated Population Model, which combines a stage-structured population projection matrix model with multiple sources of data into a unified framework, allowing for estimates of age-sex class ratios, population vital rates, and abundances, while maintaining the correct propagation of uncertainty. See the analytical methods vignette for more detail on the modeling approach.
