The visualisation module should, as intended, be able to do this but it
is a rotting bag of badgers and Petr does not seem to have much time to
develop it futher now...

If you load the data into Gwyddion as volume data (for which a relatiely
simple import module should suffice) then you can just use the Change
Preview function to get an image of the maximum value.  I am not
actually sure if this is relevant because z is once described as the
grid coordinate (in which case the highest value would be constant) and
once as something to plot for (x,y).  So I am probably missing
something.
