FICORO_GNSS v1.0.0: Initial release

This initial release provides essential tools for filtering, combining and rotating GNSS velocity fields

🔍 Key features:

• Filter GNSS data: Remove GNSS velocity outliers based on velocity uncertainty distribution and spatial coherence of velocities
• Combine velocity fields: Combine GNSS velocity fields from multiple geodetic studies into a unified velocity field.
• Rotate to multiple reference frames: Rotate velocity fields to different reference frames using GAMIT/GLOBK integration.
• Manage duplicate stations: Identify and handle collocated stations with minor coordinate discrepancies across different datasets.
• User-friendly interface: Use Jupyter Notebook for interactive and streamlined data processing.

📂 Included in this release:

• Main notebook: FICORO_GNSS.ipynb – Orchestrates the data processing workflow.
• Input folder: raw_input/ – Contains example GNSS velocity fields in .raw format.
• Scripts folder: scripts/ – Houses Python scripts for automated filtering and combining processes.
• Manual filter folder: manual_filter/ – Includes a CSV template for defining geographic coordinates and radii for outlier removal.
• Documentation: Comprehensive README.md with usage instructions.
• Example combined velocity field: The package includes a combined GNSS velocity field for the Alpine Himalayan belt.

🚧 Future enhancements:

• Python-based rotation and alignment modules: Eliminating the dependency on GAMIT/GLOBK in upcoming releases.
• Enhanced documentation: Providing more detailed tutorials and examples.
• Community contributions: Encouraging contributions to expand functionalities.
• Modular code structure: Making the code more modular by bundling common functions into modules, enhancing maintainability and scalability.
