It's calculated assuming the tapagraphy of the country is flat. Water area is included in the total for all inland bodies of water as well as some coastal estuaries, bays, sounds, waterways and etc.

What is the definition of latitude in geography?
It is "A distance north or south of the equator, measured in degrees".But distance is not measured in degrees. The latitude of a place is theangle corresponding to the shortest arc on the Earth's surface betweenthe equator and that place.
What does the exterior surface mean?
It just means the outside surface.
What is the difference between 27 centimeters and 27.00 centimeters?
When considering significant digits, there is a difference between 27 and 27.00. If you measured something that was 27, then it means you measured to the tens place. However, a measurement of 27.00 means you measured to the hundreths place. The 27.00 is a more accurate measurement because you are considering lower denominations of the unit.
What does it mean if a star has similar size and surface to the sun?
It means that it is the same size and surface temperature as our sun.
What is difference between anhydrous and dried basis?
1. anhydrous means : Means remove the water content & solvent free value calculated in the assay. 2. On dry base : Means remove the loss on dry & solvent free value calculated in the assay
What does average speed mean in science?
It means the sum of the measured/calculated speeds divided by the number of speeds that were measured/calculated.

Finding area of a curved surface?
That can be a complicated process (although some curves are simpler than others). If the curvature can be described by an algebraic equation, then the area can be calculated by means of integral calculus. Alternatively, if you can fit simpler geometric shapes (such as squares and triangles) into the curved surface in a way that approximately fills that surface, you can use simpler means to calculate the area.
