Search and order ASTER

As some of the colleagues keep asking on ASTER ordering and I can't remember myself the exact steps. So here is the procedure:

Search

-        Search using USGS global catalogue http://glovis.usgs.gov/.

-        Select sensor/ASTER/VNIR. Right click on frame to select appropriate date.

-        Write down the Granule ID.

-        The correct Granule ID form is SC:AST_L1B.002:2001004787

Order

-        Go to NASA On Demand Order: http://e0ins01u.ecs.nasa.gov:10800/

-        Enter as guess, with email address (any email)

-        Select appropriate ASTER products (AST_07 = surface reflectance)

-        Enter the Granule ID

-        Follow the instruction

Download

The image will be delivered using FTP pull. Sometime IE can't handle the FTP server, the work around is using Mozilla FireFox
