Hello,

I use the elevation webservice astergdem and it seems that, for a same location, the elevation values obtained are differents this week compare to last week, in particular in China...
Have the data or the webservice been modified?

For example :
http://api.geonames.org/astergdem?lats=25.04005&lngs=98.51084&username=my_username gives 133m whereas last week it was 122m...

Do you have any explanation ?

Thanks in advance !

we are updating the aster dataset from version 1 to version 2. Some servers still have v1 data. Depending on which server you you end on you will get v1 or v2 data.

Best Regards
