Henry Francis Walling (June 11, 1825 - April 8, 1889) was a notable American civil engineer and cartographer.
After graduation he became an assistant librarian in the Providence Athenaeum, during which time he studied mathematics and surveying.
He then entered the office of Samuel Barrett Cushing, a civil engineer in Providence, whose partner he became in 1846.
He began topographic work in 1849, and prepared atlases containing full maps and scientific descriptions of most of the northern American states and the Dominion of Canada.
In 1867 Walling became chair of civil engineering in Lafayette, in which role he served for three years, but then resigned to accept an appointment as assistant in the Office of Coast Survey.
