Tycho Brahe greatly increased the accuracy of measurements in regards to the night sky and planetary orbits/motion. (this was a big problem back in the day and delayed many of the heliocentric proposals)
His meticulous work in his calculations and data was an impetus for Kepler's later success in the formation of his famous planetary laws.
