the input geometry
Example Version

GetZsFromSurfaceAsync(Geometry) Method
Obtains a geometry that is similar to the given input geometry, where all Z values are populated from the default Ground Surface Layer.
Syntax
public Task<SurfaceZsResult> GetZsFromSurfaceAsync( 
   Geometry geometry
)

Parameters

geometry
the input geometry

Return Value

a result that contains a status , plus an output geometry only if the status is favorable
Exceptions
ExceptionDescription
the input geometry is null
this Map does not have a Ground Surface Layer
this Map does not have a CIM definition
this Map does not have any surfaces
Remarks
If the surface has no data at a particular input geometry point, then the corresponding output geometry point Z will be set to the value specified in SurfaceZsMissingHandler.DefaultOutputZ.
Example
Get Z values from a surface
var geometry = await QueuedTask.Run<Geometry>(() =>
{
  Geometry mapCentergeometry = MapView.Active.Map.CalculateFullExtent().Center;
  return mapCentergeometry;
});
//Pass any Geometry type to GetZsFromSurfaceAsync
var surfaceZResult = await MapView.Active.Map.GetZsFromSurfaceAsync(geometry);
return surfaceZResult;
