Hi @salwan
I believe thatyou can use the transformer CoordinateExtractor:
Parameters:
This transformer generate attributes: x,y and z.
Thanks,
Danilo
Dear Danilo,
Thank you so so much for your response. I will follow your steps and I believe I will be on the right track.
Again very appreciate your help.
Have a nice day
Kindly regards

Dear Danilo,
I am afraid I need some help (my apology for disturbing you). I have done the following:
I have saved a selected area (using polygon) in google earth
I saved the file as KMZ ( the size of the file was very small about 657byets)
I created a new reader, I attached the google file to it with the needed coordinate system to the reader
The file contains NO Z value!
What am willing to realize, is to strip all the Z value from a large area on google earth
But it seems for me unclear how to put this issue together. I am very new for FME and this is my first use
I hope that you have some tips to manage that
Thank you so much for your help
Kindly regards
Salwan

Hi @salwan
Could you share here your kml file to investigate better?

Hi @salwan
Thanks yours files.
I open the files in FME Data Inspector and there are polygons in 2D.
In GoogleEarth = Do you want to get the Buildings inside your Polygons:?
I believe that is necessary to use the API for Google Earth to integrate with the features from GoogleEarth, using Python libraries - PythonCaller:
https://developers.google.com/earth-engine/
Thanks,

Dear Danilo,
Millions of thanks for each moment that you spent on helping me. I don't want the building Z value but the profile of the roads and the existing Ground. I would like to extract the Z value to implement directly to civil 3d DWG drawing to create a surface which I can use to set up my model on it.

Hi @salwan
No problem! 
Thanks.
In my opinion is necessary to try to do this with API in Google Earth.
