in the example of 1024x2, 1024 = pixels (of the heightmap), 2 = 2 meters, the size of each grid square on the map, where the smaller the grid square the more detail you can put into your terrain. So its 1024 pixels, times by 2 meters, = 2048 meters, which = just above 2km. Then of course since that's only the hirizontal or vertical lengeth, that isn't the entire area map, since really its 2kms by 2kms, making an area of 4km^2.

1024x4 = 4096m x 4096m map, aka, 4.1 x 4.1km map (rounded up), which gives you an area of 16.8km^2.
