Maybe "center of the area defined by the enclosing lines (or borders)? Simplistic, I know, but my mind is temporarily out to lunch!

HI Everyone,

I am trying to find a simple way to refer to the location exactly center of an area, looking below:

------------------------------- outside defining edge of solid area

===================== this is the center of the solid area (or plane, or whatever)

-------------------------------- outside defining edge of solid area

Currently we are using the word 'midpoint' but this is defined as "A point equidistant from the ends of a line or the extremities of a figure" - since this is not strictly true, how would you define this?

"halfway between"

"center of the plane"

Thanks in advance!
