We present a new ROBUST technique for extracting information from galaxy surveys which allows determination of cosmological parameters free of almost any model assumptions concerning the galaxy luminosity function and spatial clustering. We illustrate ROBUST by estimating H0 and the linear bias parameter, β, from recent redshift-distance data.
