Custom surface from vertices

Hello all,

I have a list of ~1600 cartesian coordinates that represents mesh vertices of a custom surface (with plenty of non-simple curvature). Essentially the object is like the surface of a slice of a sphere (imagine the rind/peel part of an orange slice) except that the curvature is not spherical. The list consists of the vertices of a mesh of this surface, exported from another program. I would like to form a surface (or a series of smaller quadrilateral surfaces) from these vertices (recreating the peel from a list of points on the surface of the peel). The points are already ordered along lines from the bottom corner to the top corner of the slice so that's at least somewhat convenient.

Let me know if there is any way to input these points to produce the surface I want to create.

Thanks,
Carl
