ftp

This is an alternative how to download ASTER GDEM via FTP. It is much faster and based on my experience, there is no error page like http://www.gdem.aster.ersdac.or.jp. Here are the steps. Visit WIST Page (https://wist.echo.nasa.gov/~wist/api/imswelcome/) “ENTER WIST” or use this link https://wist.echo.nasa.gov/wist-bin/api/nph-ims.cgi?mode=MAINSRCH&JS=1
