xml node data to C# object

I have an xml file where I only need to extract data from certain
nodes. I am using XPathNavigator to find the nodes I want. My
question is, once I have the node I want, is there an easy way to
convert it to a C# object. For example, if I have the node:

<Point3>
<x>54.7</x>
<y>55.9</y>
<z>0.005</z>
</Point3>

and a corresponding Point3 structure in C#, is there a way I could do
something like:

Point3 p = (Point3)xpathnavigator.Value();

I tried using ValueAs:

Point3 p = (Point3)xpathnavigator.ValueAs(typeof(Point3));

but it threw an exception. Obviously I could move to the lower level
and use the property ValueAsDouble, but I would like to read in
structs at a time, if possible, rather than hitting every data member.

I'd suggest that you add a constructor to your Point3 structure that takes
an XmlNode as its argument. In the constructor you'd get the child nodes and
set the property values from their text parsed as floating-point variables.
