The Asteroid Orbital Elements Database - astorb.dat is an ASCII file of high-precision osculating orbital elements, ephemeris uncertainties, and some additional data for all the numbered asteroids and the vast majority of unnumbered asteroids (multi-apparition and single-apparition) for which it is possible to make reasonably determinate computations.
Small-Body Orbital Elements - from JPL/NASA. Provides access to orbital elements for the numbered asteroids, unnumbered asteroids, and comets contained in JPL's DASTCOM database.
Minor Planet Center Orbit Database - Ftp access to the complete set of minor planet (asteroid) orbits generated and compiled by the International Astronomical Union's Minor Planet Center. MPCORB contains orbits for every object for which it is possible to make a reasonable prediction of where the object is. MPCORB currently contains over 30000 orbits.
