How do I get the area within a PropertyLine and Area-Plans?

Hey,

I am trying to get the area within my PropertyLine of my project and the area within my Area-Plans in the Building.

Although I found a similar question to mine in the forum, I didn't really understand what they were doing.

I am using C# and Revit 2021.

It would be of great help if someone could explain me how to get these areas.

An example for bothe would also be really helpful.

Thank you in advance!!

I would assume that the property line is associated with a curve of some kind. You can use RevitLookup to determine exactly how. Maybe the associated curve is the property line's location curve directly. Alternatively, it could be stored in its geometry. Collect the property line geometric curves, create a closed curve loop from those, and determine the area of the enclosed surface. Several solutions to determine the area of a closed curve loop are presented in the discussion on on whether the first edge loop is still the outer loop:
