Jordan Transverse Mercator

Jordan Transverse Mercator is a projected [coordinate system] defined by the Royal Jordan [Geographic Center]. This system is based on 6° belts with a central meridian of 37° East and a scale factor at origin = 0.9998. The JTM is based on the Hayford ellipsoid adopted by the IUGG in 1924.
No transformation parameters are presently offered by the government. However, Prof. Stephen H. Savage of Arizona State University provides the following parameters for the projection:
Prof. Savage also offers software, ReprojectME!, which will convert coordinates between JTM and other systems.
The central meridian of 37° East is roughly midway between the extremes of Jordan: the Karameh [Border Crossing] with Iraq is close to 39° East, while the city of Aqaba on the Red Sea is close to 35° East.
