The topography of the earth's surface can be represented in GIS by DEM data. Surface modeling is the process of determining natural or artificial surfaces using one or more mathematical equations. A general surface modeling algorithm for all applications is not available, each method of creating a topographic surface has several advantages, disadvantages and depends on its processing direction. As such, experimenting, evaluating and selecting algorithms that are appropriate to the reality of the data and research area are necessary. Research paper, experimentally evaluating 4 Spline, IDW, Kriging and Natural Neighbor algorithms to model terrain on two map pieces representing different terrain types, the research results show that: the adapting each algorithm depends heavily on the terrain of each interpolation area. Spline interpolated terrain surfaces in more detail in ravine and valley areas; Natural Neighbor excels at matching the contours of data in all regions. IDW and Kriging algorithms have similar results and have lower accuracy than the above two methods, especially it is difficult to interpolate peaks and slopes. MAE, respectively, of high and medium hills and mountains are Spline (9.7, 10.3), NN (11.8, 10.1), IDW (13.0, 10.9), Kriging (13.3, 12.2).

Satellite image data is being researched and applied effectively in the survey and establishment of bathymetry mapping in shallow water areas in both time and human terms. Remote sensing techniques contribute to rapid updating of topography, timely assurance of civil and military operations such as maritime safety, environmental security and rescue, Warfare in the military, especially the ability to remotely monitor disputed areas. The article experiment with the Stumpf et al algorithm to estimate the shallow water depths on the Spratly Island by Landsat 8 image. The correlation coefficient of the model R2 is 0.924; RMSE is 0.99m. In addition, the results are compared with the map data of C-map and use 12 actual test points scores to evaluate the accuracy of the model.
