Dirck Rembrandtsz van Nierop (1610 – 4 November 1682) was a seventeenth-century Dutch cartographer, mathematician, surveyor, astronomer, teacher and vermaner.
Van Nierop was born and died at Nieuwe Niedorp ("Nierop"), Holland (now in North Holland). He has more than thirty scientific publications to his name like New Dubbelt Nierper Graed-boeck that reprinted nine times in 1683, and the Renal Upper almanacs annually from 1655 to 1683 and published an adaptation of the journal of Abel Tasman.
