We are continuing to experience intermittent connection problems with the USGS FTP service for downloading LIDAR. The USGS has been upgrading their servers over the last several weeks and continues to experience some issues. We expect the USGS will get these IT resolved soon. We are monitoring the situation and doing all we can but have no control over the USGS FTP Service.
Thanks for your patience.
Tuesday October 27, 2020 - Connection to the USGS FTP server has been restored. A GeoSync Z-Tools Software update is required. Open GeoSync Z-Tools and click the update label on the main toolbar.
Monday Morning October 26th - the USGS FTP service is not functioning properly. We are checking on the status and will post when the service is back working.
July 25, 2020 USGS download speeds are GOOD. If you are having any problems downloading LIDAR tiles please send us a message. Recommend using Quick Terrain Download tool instead of USGS LIDAR Tool i
