If you actually have data in DEM format ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USGS_DEM), you can open it in ParaView by simply adding a .dem extension to the file. I am not sure if this is the case though. .xyz is a pretty common extension so it is hard for us to help without knowing specifics.
If you load in a set of points with csv reader, you can use one of the Delaunay filters to mesh them.
