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.
