       ByVal points As IEnumerable(Of MapPoint), _
       ByVal surfaceLayer As ElevationSurfaceLayer _
    ) As ElevationProfileResult

    Parameters

    points
    A set of points.
    surfaceLayer
    Identifies the surface to be used. If null is specified, then the default Ground Surface will be used.

    Return Value

    An ElevationProfileResult. If successful, this contains the generated polyline.
