Retrieves positional features of an openSkiesStateVectorSet object. Features will be uniformly interpolated from the observed values.

1	getVectorSetFeatures(stateVectorSet, resamplingSize=15, method="fmm", fields=NULL)

`stateVectorSet`	object of class `openSkiesStateVectorSet` for which positional features should be extracted.
`resamplingSize`	number of uniformly separated interpolation points at which the values of the position features should be calculated.
`method`	method to be used for interpolation. "linear" will result in linear interpolation, while "fmm", "periodic", or "natural" will result in different types of spline interpolation.
`fields`	character vector indicating the names of the fields of the `openSkiesStateVector` objects that should be included in the extracted positional features. In the default behavior, `fields=NULL` and only latitude and longitude values will be used.

A vector with positional features of the provided openSkiesStateVectorSet object. The vector alternates values of longitude and latitude at each interpolated point, unless a character vector with valid names of fields of openSkiesStateVector objects is provided through fields, in which case values of the specified fields are alternated, in the specified order.

# Extract positional features for a time series of state vectors for the 
# aircraft with ICAO 24-bit address 403003 for the 8th of October, 2020 between 
# 16:50 and 16:53 (London time), with a time resolution of 1 minute.
