This research presents the results of the cartometric analysis of two Leonardo da Vinci’s works, i.e. the Mapa mundi and A map of Imola. The analysis of the Mapa mundi was conducted by employing various distortion measures and creating maps to show their distribution by distortion isograms. A map of Imola was analysed utilising MapAnalyst, taking advantage of the software’s tools, such as distortion grids, isolines of scale and local map rotation angles.
