Hello, when I click on the map I can get a MapPoint object that contains the X&Y coordinates.
But I need also the Z (the terrain height).. how can I get it? Is there an utility method of ESRI / service / something?..
thank you 🙂

I don't know of any service, but have you seen this:
http://help.arcgis.com/en/webapi/silverlight/samples/start.htm#SurfaceProfile

Note though: All the services used in the SDK are TEST services (hence why they are on sampleserverX.arcgisonline.com), and are only to be used for demo purposes and not in a production environment.
