abstract: 'An automated Argos location quality control process for Argos location
  data from satellite tags. Functions automatically download and collate data from
  one of several potential remote source: a user-supplied URL, a user-supplied Google
  Drive link, a user-supplied Dropbox link, the SMRU server, or the Wildlife Computers
  Portal API. The package matches deployment data with user-supplied deployment metadata;
  projects location data from lon,lat to a user-supplied projection or a default projection;
  fits user-specified SSM''s in 2 passes to estimate most plausible locations; collates
  results by species & deployment program; generates diagnostic plots & maps; appends
  predicted locations at tag-measured event times to the tag manufacturer activity
  files such as CTD profiles, dive records, haulout records, and the Argos and (when
  present) GPS location files; saves activity files as .csv in one of several possible
  schema (IMOS ATF, ATN, User-defined); pushes QC''d files to a user-specified server
  or saves to a local archive (zipfile).'
