We propose a new method to compute planar triangulations of triangulated surfaces for surface parameterization. Our method computes a projection that minimizes the distortion of the surface metric structures (lengths, angles, etc.). It can handle any manifold surface, including surfaces with large curvature gradients and non-convex domain boundaries. We use only the necessary and sufficient constraints for a valid two-dimensional triangulation. As a result, the existence of a theoretical solution to the minimization procedure is guaranteed.
