I generated a mesh from point cloud data. I want to remove top/flat surface from my mesh.
Is there any suggestion?

Try a clip filter or perhaps an extract_cells filter by marking creating some criterion to decide if a cell is on that top surface or not.

The second half of the surface normals example might be useful to you: it computes surface normals and uses those normals to decide what parts of the mesh to remove/keep
