Everything now is now being projected to the specified_crs of EPSG: 4326, which is essentially unprojected and, especially if we turn off spherical geometry (see comment on line 15 of 2_process/src/scope_lake_tributaries.R, potentially going to lead to some inaccuracy. What makes this tricky is that leaflet requires things to be in EPSG 4326, from what I can tell. So, if we are going to send them shapefiles or use any of our products for analysis or measurement at all, I suggest that we make sure that we project the data into a different coordinate system, like EPSG 5070 and we can just project it back to 4326 just for plotting in leaflet.
