it depends where the water is going to be. you need to make it about 100 pixels wider and higher than the area that is going to be 'filled' with water. alternatively, you could make it the same size as the main matrix, that way wherever the matrix went below a certain height (the height of the water matrix) there would automatically be water there. the problem with that is that your program will be slower than if you made matrices the right size for where they need to go

height=z
width=x
depth=y
does that help?

ok, imagine this.
if you are looking straight forwards, and you take a step forward, you are advancing z
if you step back, you are decreasing z
if you step to the left, you increase x
to the right, decrease x
if you climb up a ladder, you increase y
down the ladder you decrease y

im not very good at explanations, but i hope you understand what i am trying to say

If you qant top make the ground walkable, then put this after you load the matrix:

position matrix 1,0,0,0

then you can use get ground height() to work out the height your character should be at.
