A map tile is considered above ground if it has, at some point, been bleached by the everlasting day that casts shadows across the world. Any channel dug from the surface by your miners will expose subterranean to light creating new above ground. Walls and floors constructed by dwarves also create new above ground tiles. The sky is considered above ground.
