Sample Color on Terrain

I need to sample a color on the terrain given a world space position. I've seen ways of sampling the current texture via the splatmap on this website, but I need to go beyond that by getting the color of the combination of all textures applied; like sampling the base map.

Is there access to the base map? That would make life easier. I can't find it documentation so I assume no.

I've read this a few times last few hours because all terrain questions interest me, but I'm a little stumped on this. I also couldn't find anything about the base map gen from splatmap formula.
