#' @aliases ddfilter_speed
#' @title Filter locations by speed
#' @description A partial component of \code{\link{ddfilter}}, although works as a stand-alone function.
#' This function removes locations by a given threshold speed as described in Shimada et al. (2012).
#' @param sdata A data frame containing columns with the following headers: "id", "DateTime", "lat", "lon", "qi".
#' See the data \code{\link{turtle}} for an example.
#' The function filters the input data by a unique "id" (e.g. transmitter number, identifier for each animal).
#' "DateTime" is the GMT date & time of each location in class \code{\link[base:DateTimeClasses]{POSIXct}} or \code{\link[base]{character}} with the following format "2012-06-03 01:33:46".
#' "lat" and "lon" are the latitude and longitude of each location in decimal degrees.
#' "qi" is the quality index associated with each location fix.
#' The input values can be either the number of GPS satellites or Argos Location Classes.
#' Argos Location Classes will be converted to numerical values, where "A", "B", "Z" will be replaced with "-1", "-2", "-3" respectively.
#' The greater number indicates a higher accuracy.
#' @param vmax A numeric value specifying a threshold of speed from a previous and/or to a subsequent fix.
#' Default is 8.9km/h.
#' If this value is unknown, it can be estimated from \emph{sdata} using the function \code{\link{vmax}}.
#' @param method An integer (1 or 2) specifying how locations should be filtered.
#' Default is 1 and removes a location if the speed from a previous AND to a subsequent location exceeds \emph{vmax}.
#' Select 2 to remove a location if the speed from a previous OR to a subsequent location exceeds \emph{vmax}.
#' For the latter, the filter examines successive suspect locations (i.e. the speed from a previous and/or to a subsequent location exceeds \emph{vmax})
#' and retain one location that is associated with the minimum speed from a previous and to a subsequent location.
#' @importFrom dplyr bind_rows
#' @export
#' @details This function removes locations if the speed from a previous and/or to a subsequent location exceeds a given threshold speed.
#' If \emph{vmax} is unknown, it can be estimated using the function \code{\link{vmax}}.
#' @return The input data is returned without locations identified by this filter.
#' The following columns are added: "pTime", "sTime", "pDist", "sDist", "pSpeed", "sSpeed".
#' "pTime" and "sTime" are hours from a previous and to a subsequent fix respectively.
#' "pDist" and "sDist" are straight distances in kilometres from a previous and to a subsequent fix respectively.
#' "pSpeed" and "sSpeed" are linear speed from a previous and to a subsequent fix respectively.
