Sorry - the not so deliberate mistake was in the Aggregator. It should
be...

Use the Aggregator to aggregate the POINT features. In the settings set:
 Group-By = ID
 Attribute to Average = _z

Hope this helps. I'm just making a quick example and will post it to
fmepedia... see: http://www.fmepedia.com/index.php/Sandbox in a few
minutes time.

CoordinateFetcher is doing in the process, I'm not sure where to put
it? Since I need to put the average elevation back to the points
should I connect Point or Area output from PointOnArea to Aggregator?
And last (but not least J) I'm not sure how to include
FeatureMergerÂ…who is requestor and who supplier?
