New description:
Radar and Lidar data in native radial (polar) coordinates is not supported
by existing grid mapping types in CF.
Therefore we are requesting the addition of a new grid mapping type called
'radar_lidar_radial_scan'.
The essential parameters are the latitude, longitude and altitude of the
instrument.
The full proposal is described in the attached PDF.
