What about the "Mesh Quality" filter? You can select "Area" for triangle and quadrilateral quality. You get a cell data array with results for each cell.

John,

Thanks. I already look into both of those filters. Although both filters internally compute polygon area, I did not see a way to get the per-cell area (written out to a cell data array) from them. When I run vtkIntegrateAttributes, I get a single value back that is the total area of all the cells. I also did not see a clear way to get the data from vtkIntegrateFlowSurface. Am I missing something?

    I started writing this
    
https://svn.cscs.ch/vtkContrib/trunk/vtkCSCS/vtkCSCSCommon/vtkCellPropertiesFilter.cxx
    header is also there.

    But although it does the area of triangulted data ok, I never used
    it as I ended up using the vtkIntegrateAttributes (this does areas
    for all 2D cell types) filter and IntegrateFlowThroughSurface

        Compute cell area Is there an easy way to compute the area of
        a 2D cell?
