Giovanni Battista Boazio (auch Baptista Boazio) ((* ???; † ???, Schaffenszeit 1588 – 1606) war ein italienischer Zeichner und Kartograf.
He mapped Sir Francis Drake's voyage to the West Indies and America.
He spent a long period working in England, and made a map of Ireland that was then used in the Theatrum Orbis Terrarum. He was sponsored by Robert Devereux, 2nd Earl of Essex to draw a map illustrating the Capture of Cadiz, which was engraved by Thomas Cockson.[1]
A set of five maps by the reputed cartographer, Giovanni Battista Boazio, was published in the first printed Atlas of England and Wales by Christopher Saxton. [2]
