The Israeli Ministry of Natural Infrastructure, Energy and Water Resources published a maritime map of the borders of a new natural gas field.
The map is a part of a full license (PDF), a legal document written in Hebrew.
This map has enormous importance to several environmental and social NGOs. Some of their activists have tried to georeference it, but could not figure out the coordinate system and asked for my assistance.
The coordinates are indeed odd - the first number has 5 digits, while the second has 6 (e.g. 65395/776428
). It resembles UTM, but I could not figure how to find the exact zone or why is there a difference in the number of digits.
Could you please help me identify the coordinate system in this map? The location is in the Mediterranean sea, a few dozens kilometers off the Isreali coast.
