Hi Jean-Michel,

I think Martin et al are right, i.e. I double-checked the angle  
fields in e.g.
grid.t009.nc
are all 1. (=AngleCS)
and     0. (=AngleSN)

so no useful info.
Tile 9 above is the non-trivial polar cap tile
(in fact all other tiles are plain lat/lon),
so one would have expected that content to be different.

I suppose the angle info is missing in the grid generation part.

-p.
