The spatial data (10 minute squares and lease areas) needs some description. Please add to https://github.com/NEFSC/READ-SSB-CHAJI-Effort-Displacement---Scallop/blob/main/data_wrangle/data_extracting.rmd

and follow the table formatting found here:

Flagging @BryceMcManus-NOAA, since he was asking for it.

@BryceMcManus-NOAA I put a description together in the spatial_data_mc branch. When you get a chance can you please let me know if you think any other info would be helpful to add.

Shapefiles outlining the Greater Atlantic region with ten-minute squares and lease areas are included in our analysis. Lease area outlines are downloaded periodically from collected from BOEM's Renewable Energy GIS Data website [https://www.boem.gov/renewable-energy/mapping-and-data/renewable-energy-gis-data]. The ten-minute square grid was created in ArcGIS Pro with help from Talya tenBrink, GARFO.
