Michael,
A general solution would have more appeal, although I suspect it will be
a bit more computation intensive as you'll probably have to transform to
invoke PROJ multiple times per grid point to compute the direction to
the North

Hello, we're using `gdaldem aspect` on polar grid products and we need
to convert the grid-oriented directions to compass oriented ones,
location-specific directions, where "compass north" is dependent on
longitude.
It's easy but inefficient for us to do this after running gdal dem for
our polar grids at latitude -90, and a more general solution would
require a general approach to "where north is" for any location in a
projection.
I'll be able to modify GDAL to do this as an option to gdaldem for a
simple polar grid (e.g. EPSG:3031), and that will make our use of it
much more efficient. Is there any interest in a more general approach?
Best, Mike
