Phase and group velocities of G_2, G_3, R_2 and R_3 (100-330_s) are measured by the single-station method and are inverted to give a spherical harmonic representation of the velocity lateral variation. Approximately 200 paths have been studied. The results are presented for degrees and orders up to 6. The even harmonics of the phase velocity representation are consistent with those obtained from great circle phase velocities (Paper I). The odd harmonics are less constrained and generally have larger standard deviations than the even harmonics. To suppress the poorly determined harmonics in the velocity contour maps we construct a filter which is derived from an inverse problem formulation. The filter reduces the amplitudes of regional variations, but does not change the overall pattern. The patterns of the regional variations are generally consistent with those obtained by regionalized inversion of great circle data (Paper I). The velocity maps show significant differences within oceans and continents. An analysis is made of correlations of surface wave velocities with heat flow and the non-hydrostatic geoid. The slownesses correlate well with heat flow for l = 1-6. The correlation peaks at l = 2 and 5. The geoid has an anticorrelation with the slownesses at l = 2 and 3, and a
positive correlation from l = 4 to 6.
