3 possible solutions:

- In getdp, you can use the function ElementVol[] to get the volume of
the element (the surface for 2D elements)
- You can also write a plugin for Gmsh that computes stuff like that on
an arbitrary view
- Otherwise, just write a small program/script that parses the map and
computes the surfaces using the node coordinates.
