For example on wikipedia for Switzerland it says the country has an area of 41,285 km². Does this take into account that a lot of that area is actually angled at a steep inclination, thus the actual surface area is in effect larger than what you would expect when looking onto a map in satellite view?

Do you think the holes left by digging the dirt would also count as increased area? Because it feels like it'd be a 2 for one deal
