featureExpressionInfo	An object that defines an expression for per-feature elevation. If not set, geometry.z values are used for elevation. unit is applied to the resulting expression value.
mode	Determines how the service elevation values are combined with the elevation of the scene. Valid values: absoluteHeight onTheGround relativeToGround relativeToScene
offset	Offset is always added to the result of the above logic except for onTheGround where offset is ignored.
unit	A string value indicating the unit for the values in elevationInfo. Applies to both offset and featureExpressionInfo. Defaults to meter if not set. 1
