Once you zoom out far enough the terrain turns solid white (for example) and all structures, belts, resources, enemies and so on get a very simplified representation (like icons).
It should basically make your setup into a schematic view.
Should be able to toggle off / on in options and set trigger zoom (i.e. maybe you only want it at max).
This might also help with some of the lag issues when zoomed out discussed in the developers blog.

Re: Simplified / Tactical View when zoomed out
I like the sound of this idea, especially if it could be configured as discussed so users have a choice of using it or not
Re: Simplified / Tactical View when zoomed out
I just had the "Supreme Commander" zoom idea in mind
What if zooming out far enough switches to the map view?
