I'm learning how the terrain data is stored. Is my understanding correct that the X and Z coordinates of the vertices are fixed, and the Y value (height) for each vertex comes from an array of float values?

positive X-axis points north
positive Y-axis points west
Z is vertical height with 0 being sea level
origin of the coordinate system is in the center of the map which is 0,0,0

So the X and Y are fixed positions, and the Z value is relative to the index value in the heightmap array, correct?

So converting the heightmap array to a bitmap should be an accurate conversion, correct?

iv seen someonedoing research on porting images with heatmap that indicated height being converted to ADT

I've seen exporters as well, but I was curious about how accurate they really were.
