Amerigo Vespucci did not create maps in the traditional sense but contributed significantly to the understanding of the New World through his explorations and writings. His letters and accounts of voyages helped clarify the geography of the Americas, distinguishing them from Asia. His name eventually became associated with the continent of America due to the work of mapmakers who used his observations. Thus, while he wasn't a cartographer himself, his contributions influenced the mapping of the New World.
