GENERATE POINTS FROM ELEVATION GRID AND DISPLAY POINTS ELEVATION
I have GM18-64bit and have two questions:
1) is it possible to generate an array of points from an elevation grid, at a given distance (i.e. 20m between rows and 15m between lines)? The command "Create Layer Coverage Box/Polygon Area Features" creates points but doesn't allow to choose the spacing in between.
2) once solved the previous point and having the points with x,y and z from the elevation grid, is it possible to display on the grid only the points elevation? See reference image, in which points were created with another software.

First add a boundary area for the data you have, then add a grid starting from upper left corner of the area and select to create only points at grid intersections. Now you can apply elevations from terrain and use that as label.

I am a newbie on 22.1 and need more detailed explanation on how to do the above.
