Not much is known of Vooght's personal life beyond his own description of himself as a 'surveyor and teacher of mathematics and the art of navigation' on which he was a prolific writer. He is noted as the author of charts in Johannes van Keulen's Zee-Fakkel; indeed, on some editions only his name appears and in consequence the Zee-Fakkel is often catalogued under his name.
Ca. 1665-ca. 1735.
Holländsk bokhandlare. Han omtalas 1691 som 'maatematische instrumentmaaker' i Amsterdam där han två år senare blev bokhandlare. Hans affär omfattade även konst- och karthandel. Han gav 1697 ut 'Het nieu en compleet Pas-kaert-Boeck van de Noord- en Oostzee'. Ca 1700 gav han ut en atlas med 36 kartor och 1719 'Nieuwe groote Spiegel'. 1721 utannonserade han ett stort, nytt 'Paskaert van de Straats Davids
A mathematical and nautical instrument maker, Loots also published manuals on navigation. For a time he was in partnership with an engraver, A de Winter, and an author of text books on charts, Claes de Vries, who had ambitions to publish a very large sea atlas of some 200 charts but this was never completed on the scale contemplated. Some of their charts were sold to Gerard van Keulen and others were used in a sea atlas published in 1697. Charts by Loots also appear in a number of other pilot books and sea atlases of the time.
