My aim is to get a nice DEM out of my severeal xyz files. I was hoping to be able to generalize the files and save some time when running the RasterDEMgenerator . Any ideas for doing so? I have tried e.g PointCloudThinner and Generalizer but they dont seem to accept my input.

the space-delimited XYZ reader should give you 3d points. You can send them to a PointCloudCombiner to turn it into a point cloud and then use a PointCloudThinner.

Thanks, I had missed one important step there:)
