Thomas Bugge (12 October 1740 – 15 January 1815) was a Danish astronomer, mathematician and surveyor. He succeeded Christian Horrebow as professor of astronomy at the University of Copenhagen in 1777. His triangulation surveys of Denmark carried out under the auspices of the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences were instrumental in creating the first precise maps of Denmark. He served as president of the Royal Danish Society for Agriculture (1773–1783), director of Den Almindelige Enkekasse (1782–), secretary of the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences (1801–1815) and three one-year terms as rector of the University of Copenhagen.

(en) Thomas Bugge (* 12. Oktober 1740 in Kopenhagen; † 15. Januar 1815 ebenda) war ein dänischer Astronom, Mathematiker, Kartograph und Landvermesser. Bugge war seit 1777 dänischer Professor der Astronomie und Mathematik an der Kopenhagener Universität und ab 1782 auch Lektor der Mathematik bei der königlichen Marine. Außerdem widmete er sich der Wasserbaukunst. (de) Thomas Bugge, född 12 oktober 1740 i Köpenhamn, död där 15 januari 1815, var en dansk matematiker och astronom. Bugge sändes 1761 till Trondheim för att iaktta Venuspassagen och anställdes sedan vid Danmarks vetenskapliga uppmätning och kartläggning, ett arbete, som han sedan själv ledde fram till sin död. Vidare ledde han 1765-77 det allmänna lantmäteriet, blev 1768 överlantmätare och skulle utbilda de övriga lantmätarna. År 1777 blev han professor i astronomi vid Köpenhamns universitet och inrättade då ett nytt observatorium. Han utförde likväl ej i sin vetenskap vad man väntat av honom, då han ständigt användes till praktiska uppdrag; han utarbetade sålunda 1774 planen till änkekassan och var senare dess direktör. År 1798 sändes han till Paris för att delta i en konferens om metersystem (sv)
