pattern	Character string used to identify Telonics Iridium CSV file(s) when a folder path is provided for the path argument. See help file for the list.files base R function.
...	Additional arguments to pass on. NOTE: Common additional arguments to pass include: "recursive = TRUE" when specifying a root folder to search for data files "recast = TRUE" to recast selected variables "colname_fun = 'function name'" to specify alternative function used to reformat column names (e.g., toupper) "fix_attempt_keep = 'All'" to return all QFP fixes. Default only returns "Resolved QFP" and "Resolved QFP (Uncertain)".
