What is shown on SkyDemon charts are the maximum elevation figures for an area. That is NOT the same as a minimum safe altitude; the pilot must decide their own minimum safe altitude based on the maximum elevation figure. The MEF shown on SkyDemon charts are derived from the highest terrain in the area, and the highest obstacle in the area, simple as that. SkyDemon warnings cannot make the entire screen go red. TerrainSafe is not really related to warnings directly but it does show you terrain that is likely to be a threat because it's close to (or above) your current level.
