Hi I have a set of .asc files. I am looking to use FME to generate a point cloud then build a Terrain in an ESRI's dataset from the asc files.
Is this something I can achieve using FME Desktop or do I have an ArcGIS 3D extension license.

You can use the pointCloudCombiner to turn your asc files into a point cloud and then write them out in a format like LAS.
You can use the SurfaceModeller to turn your points into a TIN or DEM, I don't believe FME writes Terrain Geodatabases directly, but I could be wrong about that.
Thanks for the suggestion. Would I be able to extract the height value at any given coordinate from a TIN or DEM?
