 William Heather (1764-1812) was a British engraver and publisher specializing in nautical charts, active between the late 18th and early 19th centuries. He began his business in 1793 and distinguished himself by creating detailed and precise maritime charts, essential to navigation at the time. Heather also ran a shop selling charts, along with nautical and mathematical instruments, catering to sailors, captains, and maritime professionals.

His early map of Oristano depicts the coastal geography and ports of the Oristano area of Sardinia, with particular attention to navigational details. Heather's nautical charts are highly prized today for their historical importance, the artistic quality of the engravings, and their technical accuracy, providing a valuable insight into early 19th-century marine cartographic techniques.
