I would recommend you to make a displacement map if you are going to make a landscape.

Create a plane box (as big as the landscape should be and make sure it got alot of segments if it's gonna be a detailed landscape) and then apply the modifier 'displace' and choose your bitmap(the one you were gonna use to bumpmap) in the "map" option, turn up the strength and voila.. you got a nice landscape that works alot better than a bump map ;D
