'Python Scripting for ArcGIS Pro' data issue

Hi,

The elevation data supplied with exercise 10 will not load onto a map as ArcGIS says it is an unsupported type.

On page two of the exercise document, it shows that the dataset has a band called band_1. This does not show up in my catalog pane when I try and expand on the dataset.

I've tried it and seems fine. Could you provide a screenshot(s) and what version of Pro you're using?

You've also downloaded the data from here right? Python Scripting for ArcGIS Pro (Esri Press)

I dont have Ele.asc, have you re-downloaded the file and unzipped it correctly?

Ele.asc is some elevation data I downloaded for a different area so i could do the exercise. It didnt come from the zip file.

All the other data from the zip file works.
