No, that's not the simulator.

In that simulator you could move directly around on the ground at 1 m high (at 
that altitude the terrain was very detailed -> 30000-60000 vertices or more) 
and then move up into the sky.
The greater the altitude the lower the terrain detail until you see just only
the planet at a detail of less than 500 vertics.

In general it was just a terrain engine demonstater with a very powerfull LOD 
system, you coudn't do more.
