PointClouds come in many forms, with different sets of fields and different data layouts.

The additional metadata in the sensor_msgs/PointCloud2 message describe how many rows and columns there are, which fields are present in each pixel, and what order they're in.

EDIT

PCL has a visualization library. It should be possible to use it from .NET: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18203173/net-and-pcl-point-cloud-library . It will take a little massaging to convert a ROS message into a PCL message, but the formats are basically the same.
