Point cloud to surface

Hi,

I have a basic question regarding working with cloud points in the software. I have a text/csv data containing x,y and z coordinates. When i import that in cloudcompare i got scattered points. Can i buid a surface from these points or the cloud density is so low to build one? Short info about the cordinates: X and Y are the encoder values and z points are the distace values obtained from a laser sensor.

The image of cloudcompare is attached.

You can try to mesh it with 'Edit > Mesh > Delaunay 2.5D (best fitting plane)'.
