It seems our approache to palette enhancement it's the problem. We're 
doing a statistical
sampling of  the view, and seems that with some type of data needs 
another algorythm
more suitable for this.
By the way, if you does a zoom over a region of the planet with no sea 
(or very few) portion,
you´ll be able to see correctly the earth elevations.
And if you have over a 15-25 % sea on your zoom increasing the percent 
of queue clipping
must show you the elevations on the continents, too

    Wi'll see to add it. Even not being able to see it, you must double 
click on it and you can
select the whole text and copy it (Ctrl+C) to clipboard.
