The 2D surface area.

Remarks

The 2D surface area is the apparent surface area if you look at the surface from plan view. It is obtained by projecting the visible triangles onto the XY plane along the Z axis and summing the areas of the triangles.

If areas on the surface are hidden within boundaries, then these areas are not included in the surface area.
