It can export in GeoTiff, USGS ASCII DEM, Terrain Matrix, Terragen Terrain.

Geotrans allows you to easily convert geographic coordinates among a wide variety of coordinate systems, map projections and datums.

Cartlab (You can download it from Geologia.com, link on the left column) It allows you to convert geographic or projected coordinates from different datums (Roma 40, WGS 84 or European 50).

Aerial photo, Satellite photo imagery, Digital Elevation model (DEM)

Raster Roam provides public users access to digital imagery of the Earth, maps and other geospatial information produced by the National Imagery and Mapping Agency.

SRTM DEM The Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) obtained elevation data on a near-global scale to generate the most complete high-resolution digital topographic database of Earth. Data can be downloaded from the CGIAR-CSI GeoPortal.

ASTER DEM ASTER (Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer) is an imaging instrument  flying on Terra, a satellite launched in December 1999 as part of NASA's Earth Observing System (EOS). ASTER is a cooperative effort between NASA,  Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) and Japan's Earth Remote Sensing Data Analysis Center (ERSDAC). On June 29, 2009, the ASTER Global Digital Elevation Model (GDEM) has been released. The GDEM was created by stereo-correlating the 1.3 million scene ASTER VNIR archive, covering the Earth’s land surface between 83N and 83S latitudes. The GDEM is produced with 30 meter postings, and is formatted in 1 x 1 degree tiles as GeoTIFF files. Each GDEM file is accompanied by a Quality Assessment file, either giving the number of ASTER scenes used to calculate a pixel’s value, or indicating the source of external DEM data used to fill the ASTER voids. The GDEM can be downloaded from NASA’s EOS data archive and Japan’s Ground Data System.

Earth Science Applications Directorate The public Web site offers free images of nearly any spot on the globe taken by the Landsat satellite.

Atlante Italiano The National Cartographic Portal (NCP) allows the visualization and use of National maps that have been produced following an agreement between the state and regions dated 12TH October 2000.
