As of now, the NodalLoc has only an x position. For 2D and 3D nodal and DAS (horizontal + vertical) arrays, it would be helpful to have x, y, and z positions for 2D and 3D distance calculations. For instance, here is the geometry for the Brady Hot Springs geothermal DAS array:
Adding y and z to NodalLoc may add some overlap between NodalLoc and UTMLoc/XYLoc but NodalData already has fields for ox, oy and oz.

.I can submit a very simple PR with tests on this.
