Here's a partial answer. See the document "VTK File Formats" under 
"Technical Examples" on the VTK site. It has an example of a file with 
an unstructured grid.

To plot the surface through points you must somehow decide how the 
points are connected. There is no one right answer. A class such as 
vtkDelaunay3D can be used to derive one answer.

Many others have asked similar questions; you might try looking through 
this list's archives.
