 ALOS World 3D - 30m has a lot of missing data spots. Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM GL1) Global 30m seems to have better coverage and the data / heightmap quality is much better than alos world 3d - 30m, it is highly recommended you download SRTM instead. ALOS World 3D - 30m has a lot of missing data spots.

 +United States National Elevation Dataset is heightmap with 10 meter resolution which is very good. Unfortunately as the name suggests, its only for America, so unless you are doing american terrain this has no use to you.
