      Maybe not.
      Today to get nobel prize etc... you cant just think of doing basic stuff differently.
      You have to work extremly hard on the same project for years and years.
      While da vinci was more like a college student with a 3d printer : oh i want to do this... works a few weeks on it, then when results are meh to acceptable he moves to an other project.
      I dont think he was the only one wanting to do a map, a flying machine or whatever.
      But he was probably one of the few with enough free time, money, and health to try making one.
      If you look at most of its projects that didnt work, any 12yo kid can tell you why it failed.
      Like his plane, you see that wings are too small, its like if someone told him "eh this needs wings to fly"
      Then he put wings but didnt understand their purpose so he made them small.
      He didnt even experiment different shapes, or do small scale test to see wich wings are the best for a glider or whatever.
      If he did live today he would have made :
      - drones without stabilisation because its the boring part.
      - electric cars with low power because the battery is the tricky part ( a tesla battery is made of like 2000 3.5v lithium batteries in serie and parallel, if one of these 3000 in parallel isnt discharged at the same rate of the other it overheat, if its one in serie it reduce the whole power.)
      This kind of guy was nice to have back then but nowadays you cant do anything with just some basic ideas, you have to engineer everything, try fail improve.
      Just look at spaceX how many times they crashed boosters during landing.
      Leo would have give up after 3 crashes

      @@Jay1830 Even if you have mentioned a few good points here, Da Vinci was way more dedicated than you'd think. His studies of the human body are still accurate and were painstakingly made without the help of x-Ray or anything we have at hand. You have to put his works in perspective, whilst millions of people have great ideas, most of them don't get to creating them, since they are incapable of figuring out a way to fulfill their ideas. Even back then cartographers tried creating usable maps of cities with their given knowledge, still it was Da Vinci who made the effort to actually measure out street corner degrees and length of said streets/walls/Buildings etc.. I would most certainly say he wasn't the smartest man on the planet, yet his dedication and efforts payed off. To the original comment I'd say that he'd have a fair chance at winning a noble price, maybe not all of them though :D .

    What is remarkable (among all else that is remarkable about Leonardo's work) is that at the time the maps was made, there were no universal standards - a foot in Florence was different in length from a foot in, say, Rome, which was different from a foot in Paris. So it is a testament to Leonardo's attention to accuracy and detail that the map can be overlaid on a modern map!

    In the 1500’s there were many mappers doing work to high standards of accuracy. They used plane tables, stadia, early theodolites for angles. Check out the Noli map of Roam. Similar type of mapping. This was done on the ground and very carefully. The 3D render style shown at the beginning were originally collected in the same way and they had a machine that helped them convert to a perspective view.

      Both of them are top level intelligents, but to be fair Inoh had a lot of help and in fact, his surveying team finished his work 3 years after he died.

      He was "the rennaisance man" not because of how intelligent he was ( that's just part of it ) he is the symbol of rennaisance because he was able to do anything. From building new machines, to paint the Gioconda, from designing a parachute when planes didn't exist yet, to designing buildings and statues,from studying science and physics to build tanks. The most valuable quality of a rennaisance man is to be able to do anyyhing, and he is the best example of a guy who can do anything
