Description
### Describe the bug
Data crossing 0 degrees lon ends up plotting the entire globe. This may be due to the underlying data being 340ish - 373 ish. as the longitude degrees. Example below.
### How to reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behaviour:
1. Use some data that crosses the 0degree lon line.
2. Request a spatial plot.
### Expected behaviour
Data should be constrained and pick the appropriate project for the coordinates rather than splitting them and plotting lots of empty data.

Research direction
Start by reproducing a spatial plot with longitude values around 340–373 that cross the 0-degree longitude line. Trace how the plotting path selects the appropriate project for those coordinates; done means the data remains constrained to the relevant region instead of producing an empty-data plot of the entire globe.
