Revision of earthquake hypocentre locations in global bulletin data sets using source-specific station terms

Useful tutorial

Fortran code here may be useful.

Steps:

1. Use iloc on all events and record the residuals.
2. Calculate mean/median ssst for each grid and each station and interpolate the residuals for the whole country.
3. Use iloc for each event and go back to 1. Repeat this cycle a few times.
4. Optionally do a static station terms calculation (at which step?)

We are to either use a thin plate spline interpolation with generalized cross validation or 3D kriging to interpolate the travel time residuals.
