The ldt file has no data over 90, so no ULR can be computed ;-)
  -- see the tables. We can just realistically hope that all number over 90 
degrees would be 0.0 cd/klm. Omitting values over 90 degrees in 
photometric files is a bad habit. Here it presents no swindle for sure, 
but for another luminaires, it could.

We have to ensure 0 cd/klm. ULR is to be 0,00 %, it mostly is with 0 
cd/klm.

I've added some text (and an *.ies file) to the above directory and 
computed a case for spacing 3, at 5 m height, using my own online php.

It looks nice, see for yourselves. The only problem is with so much light 
falling behind the lamps, making them a really good choice just for a 
situation of a road in front of the poles and a broad sidewalk behind 
them.
