A simple way to sample points is creating a mesh, and exporting the coordinates of the nodes as a simple text fileStart again. Create a new GiD project using

Files->New

Import and import another time the DXF 'level_curves.dxf' file.

Generate a mesh (Mesh->Generate), and write the coordinates of its nodes withusing

Files->Export->Using template .bas (only mesh)->XYZ

Create again a new model (Files->New) and import the XYZ file as geometric points

Files->Import->XYZ points...

And select Ensure the 'Triangulate' extra option is selected in the import options parameters, as shown in the following figure.

This will create a TIN 'Delaunay' triangulation, connecting in Z projection the provided points (a collapse is needed, to avoid nodes overlapped).
