Richard Langley is a professor and Director of Graduate Studies in the Department of Geodesy and Geomatics Engineering at the University of New Brunswick, where he has been teaching and conducting research since 1981. He holds a B.Sc. in applied physics from the University of Waterloo and a Ph.D. in experimental space science from York University. Following his doctorate, he spent two years at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology conducting research in geodetic applications of lunar laser ranging and very long baseline interferometry.
Dr. Langley has worked extensively with the Global Positioning System and is a co-author of the Guide to GPS Positioning. He serves as a columnist and contributing editor for GPS World magazine and has consulted widely on GPS applications with private companies and government agencies. He has held appointments with several national and international bodies, including the Canada-wide Differential GPS Service Management Board and The Institute of Navigation. For his contributions to space geodesy, he shared two awards from NASA. In 2004, he was elected a fellow of The Institute of Navigation, and in 2007 he was elected a fellow of the Royal Institute of Navigation and received The Institute of Navigation’s Johannes Kepler Award for lifetime achievement.
