Description

Code Sample, a minimal, complete, and verifiable piece of code

from satpy import Scene
scn = Scene([inf], reader='modis_l1b')
scn.load(['27', '29', '31', '32', '33'], resolution=1000)
scn2 = scn.resample('laea_bb', 
                    radius_of_influence=15000,
                    resampler='bilinear',
                    cache_dir='./CACHE/')

Where inf is a MODIS L1b granule. I'm using MOD021KM.A2006091.1605.061.2017263021720.hdf

Problem description

When resampling a MODIS granule onto the laea_bb area def (which is defined based on the granule itself, rather than a predefined extent) the cache_dir seems not to work. Each time I run the above code a new set of coefficients are generated in the ./CACHE/ dir rather than using the existing ones.
I expect this is due to the dynamic nature of the area definition. Maybe something with floating point precision in the extent?
