The planet as seen in the ending movie of Pikmin 2, Australasia, SE Asia and Japan are clearly visible.

Shigeru Miyamoto stated, that the setting for the planet is Africa, on a microscopic scale.(I think it was from a old issue of Nintendo Power, or Wikipedia.) It was also seen on the second game when Olimar landed or left the planet that the ship was heading to or coming from Africa. Most of the planets geography has been shown and matches Earths, The Ship even states when they find the Spherical Atlas (the top half of an Earth globe) that it shows the planet's geography as seen from space.
