ST_PointZ

ST_PointZ takes three numeric columns or double values and returns a point column. The three numeric columns or values must contain the x,y,z coordinates of the point geometries. You can optionally specify a spatial reference ID for the result point column. The sr parameter value must be a valid SRID or WKT string.

To create point geometries without m-values or z-coordinates use ST_Point. To create point geometries with m-values use ST_PointM, ST_PointZM, or ST_MakePoint.

For more details, go to the GeoAnalytics for Microsoft Fabric API reference for point_z.
