Leonardo's Bird's Eye Plan View of Imola
In 1502, Leonardo makes a revolutionary bird's eye plan view of the city of Imola. He was being architect in general engineer to Cesar E. Borgia who is the son of the Pope.

You measure out the key distances of the roads and squares by pacing them out on foot.
