-<p>From a theoretical perspective, the interpolating procedure takes
-place in two parts: the first is an estimate of the linear
-coefficients of a spline function is derived from the observation
-points using a least squares regression; the second is the computation
-of the interpolated surface (or interpolated vector points). As used
-here, the splines are 2D piece-wise non-zero polynomial functions
-calculated within a limited, 2D area. The length of each spline step
-is defined by <b>ew_step</b> for the east-west direction and
-<b>ns_step</b> for the north-south direction. Step is defined in number of 
-pixels. For optimal performance, the length of spline step should be no less
-than the distance between observation points. Each vector point observation is
-modeled as a linear function of the non-zero splines in the area around the 
-observation. The least squares regression predicts the the coefficients of these
-linear functions. Regularization, avoids the need to have one observation and 
-one coefficient for each spline (in order to avoid instability).
