Hi Martin:

RE: I agree with Jim that a little more basic information is needed about what 
the angles are. I may be misinterpreting the discussion, but I had imagined 
that the angles as components of a spherical coordinate system centred on the 
satellite, with the nadir at (0,0) ... is that correct?

The projection_x_angular_coordinate and projection_y_angular coordinates are 
the angular distances from the satellite’s nadir in the E/W an N/S direction, 
respectively, from the ideal location of the imaging instrument in 
geostationary orbit.
