Dear John
For example, another data type we are interested in is "radial" (eg radar). Weve been reserving "grid" to mean "grids in cartesian coordinates".
If the data is a rectangular array (angle,radius) I would call it "gridded". It has an orthogonal index space even though it's not Cartesian coordinates. Best wishes Jonathan
