TSE Milestone #2 Terrain

I have a few question about de long range terrain view system:

1) Is it the same technology as the long range view introduced in Dark an Light?

2) If terrain is huge, then how is it stored and loaded? Is it multiples terrains blocks?
At first sight, it seem that it's one big heightmap is'nt it?

It's been discussed many many times in various .plans from Ben Garney. If you click back through his plans, you can see the various discussions about the technology and features, and how it works.
