Gerardus Mercator (1512–1594) was a Flemish cartographer, geographer, and cosmographer best known for developing the Mercator projection, a map projection that became the standard for nautical navigation. His contributions to cartography laid the foundation for modern mapmaking, and the Mercator projection remains widely used today in navigation and online maps.
