Richard Urquhart Goode (December 8, 1858 – June 9, 1903) was an American geographer. He was born in Bedford, Virginia. He attended the University of Virginia before joining the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in 1877. In 1879, he became a topographer with the newly created United States Geological Survey where he worked until 1879.

In 1888, while on a leave of absence from the USGS, Goode served as an engineer and astronomer for the Panama Canal Company.
