In GpGp: Fast Gaussian Process Computation Using Vecchia's Approximation

#' Windspeed measurements from Jason-3 Satellite
#'
#' A dataset containing lightly preprocessed windspeed values
#' from the Jason-3 satellite. Observations near clouds and ice
#' have been removed, and the data have been aggregated 
#' (averaged) over 10 second intervals. Jason-3 reports
#' windspeeds over the ocean only. The data are from a six
#' day period between August 4 and 9 of 2016.
