Interesting read.
...so the terrain mapping is a representation of only the main features and, for capacity reasons, the terrain over 2,000 ft is not modelled in the database.
However the Pilot Guide and Operating Manual for the Skymap system also says:
‘This equipment is not a replacement for your chart. It is intended as an aid to VFR navigation only.’
