Can someone help me calculate the area inside the green isoline (see picture) or export the isoline in some 3d spline format
Thank You!

The area calc can either be scripted or you can manually find it through SolidWorks/Etc. As for the scripting, your license distributor should be able to help. There are a lot of steps.

On the SolidWorks side, depending how complicated your geometry is, you can get the area by importing your data as cloud data. We just spent some time last week figuring this out. I've attached a .pdf, so if you don't see it let me know.

Thanks
