LOESS (local regression) interpolation is popular with some satellite
processing groups.
It is pretty straight forward (just set up your least squares fit equation
for an appropriate
function, like a quadratic, and solve with svd or cholskey).

A brief writeup is at

this may be a wee bit slow for you though.

Cheers,
