I’m confused by your question…. hm…
Mocha is a planar tracker. This means it can simulate how a flat plane would orient itself to match a surface somewhere. (Maybe that’s what you mean by “surface”.) AE’s tracker is more of a point tracker that has some useful tools associated with it (like stabilization).
If you want to get a full 3D track, then you need another tracking solution. I enjoy Syntheyes, but there are other options out there, including PFHoe, PFTrack, and the Foundry has a Camera Tracker that works as a very sophisticated plugin that you can run directly within After Effects.
These 3D trackers will generate a 3D camera and some null objects that simulate the scene you just tracked. At that point, you simply drop in 3D layers and they [usually] will move as though they were “sticking” to the scene. Hope this helps!
