Integrating part of the boundary

I have a 3d simulation, in which I have a surface, which consists of several boundaries. I want to split that surface into a grid and integrate each element of the grid. The final result should be a matrix in matlab, where each entry in the matrix represents the result of integration of the respective element in the grid.
The way I do it now is by using:
[xo, yo, es] = mphinterp(model, {'x', 'y','es.nD'}, 'dataset','surf1');
F = TriScatteredInterp(xo',yo',es');
Then integrating F.
It works, but gives a large error. I tried to minimise the error by meshing the surface more densely, but the smallest I could get it to was 12%, which is too large for my application.
Is there a way to get the results of the integration straight from Comsol? I was looking at functions like mphint, but couldn't figure out a way how to use them in this way.
I can provide example mph file, if needed.
Best regards,
Ivan
