Copernicus did a lot of work to produce a model of the solar system with the Sun at the centre, which Galileo used to start a damaging dispute with the Pope, because he said it was not just a model, it was the truth, thus stepping over the barrier between science and religion (and he had no proof, as he finally admitted).

After Newton's time it was realised that the Sun is 330,000 times more massive than the Earth so it must be at rest in the centre, and now that is accepted as the truth.

"Mapped the solar system"? Even today, there's still a lot of unknown, "Here There Be Dragons!" parts of our own solar system; there's a lot that we don't know, and we don't understand a lot of what we DO know.

Probably the earliest "map" of the solar system would been by Copernicus, but his depiction was crude. The first "half-way decent" depictions were probably generated by Tycho Brahe, a nasty genius fanatic about super-precise observations of the heavens.
