Charles-François Delamarche (August 1740 – 31 October 1817) was a French geographer and mapmaker.

He was a significant figure among French geographers and mapmakers during the latter part of the 18th century. He followed in the footsteps of renowned geographers such as Nicolas Sanson (1600-1667), Robert de Vaugondy (1686-1766) and Rigobert Bonne (1727-1794), and even reprinted their atlases. Additionally, he was also an educator in geography. Along with creating maps and globes, he authored a comprehensive treatise on the use of celestial and terrestrial spheres. This treatise showcases both Ptolemaic and Copernican systems, as well as provides a list of ancient and modern constellations. His legacy was carried on by his son, Félix Delamarche (18th century- 1st half 19th century).
