Dear Tobias,

Thank you very much for the reply.

1. I need all the coordinate datapoints which cannot be avoided as of now.
2. I actually tried externally by exporting to csv and scaling it by using python. But the problem is I am getting coordinate value error while exporting to csv file. I will get the coordinate datapoints of all rows but it is not correctly aligned. I can change it manually by some code. But everytime, it is not possible for manual check. I have also posted regarding this in the below forum separately.
3. I have also posted the csv dataset link in that.

I have also attached below the vti file for reference.

Thanks and Regards,
