Hi,
After importing the SRTM file in Global Mapper, follow the following steps:
1. Goto Tools...Configure menu
2. Goto Projection tab
3. Choose the correct projection from the drop down menu. I chose UTM.
4. Then choose the correct zone.
5. Click OK
6. Goto File...Export Elevation Grid Format
7. Choose BIL/BIP/BSQ File
8. In Export Bounds you can choose to export only required area.
9. Click Ok and you're done.

Dear dmitry28,
I've done follow your step. Aircom can't read exported map because not have index.txt file.
Could you help me to show how to create/edit index.txt file.
BR.

Yes, you can convert but Asset usually can not open it (I tried many times with many tools)
It is better if you buy the Asset map format
