The lower bound on this map’s logarithmic scale is ~1000 km. I’d love to see it extended down to the Planck length.

Not quite the same concept, but close: https://htwins.net/scale2/
Yeah, and then the origin should be moved to somewhere on the surface of the earth, instead of it's core.
compare (1957) https://ned.ipac.caltech.edu/level5/Boeke/frames.html "The Universe in 40 jumps"

10e-13 cm to 10e26 cm

what do you mean? There's no "origin" on a logarithmic map, it's infinite both ways
The map is relative to one location. You don’t want to see « rocks » and « rocks » for any distance smaller than 6000km, you want to see everyday objects. So you want the origin to be on earth surface
ok, I get it. It could be centered on a cell of your own body!
Yes! Maybe centered on an up quark in a proton of a carbon atom in the DNA in the nucleus of a brain cell.
