Danish term or phrase: over et med
Løbet begrænses mod nord af en linie fra det punkt, hvor kaj nr. 853 støder til Prøvestensfortet over et med sydkant af nordre bølgebryder.
Mod syd begrænses løbet af en linje bestemt ved det nordlige hjørne af Prøvestensfortet over et med det søndre molehoved ved havneindløbet.

I have never some across this phrase before - it reminds me of "overens med", but does it have a particular meaning I am unaware of, or can I say "coinciding with"?

Explanation:
Gyldendals Røde Ordbog has "holde over med" > "keep in line with". The English "in line with" would seem to work in your instance.

Darn, it was supposed to be "holde over et med"! But perhaps you understood that.
