The Points
File Format
A Point file format is
basically a text file containing the x, y and z coordinates of a point
on each line. Usually the coordinates are stored in the XYZ. However,
points are sometimes stored in the YXZ order. This is common in survey
data where the YXZ order is referred to Northing, Easting and Elevation.
An example of a point file with points stored in the XYZ order.
