The Rudolph Glacier flows slowly northward into Andvord Bay on the Danco Coast of Graham Land in the British Antarctic Territory, south of the Moser Glacier.

This glacier was photographed from the air by the Falkland Islands and Dependencies Aerial Survey Expedition of 1956-57; and named in association with the names of pioneers of photogrammetry grouped in this area; after Paul Rudolph (1858-1935), German mathematical optician who designed the first anastigmatic lens, introduced by Zeiss in 1889, and the Tessar lens, introduced by Zeiss in 1902.
