Optical remote sensing is an effective means of water depth measurement, but the current approach of mainstream bathymetric retrieval requires a large amount of onsite measurement data. Such data are hard to obtain from places where underwater terrains are complicated and unsteady, and from sea areas affected by issues with rights and conflicts of interest. In recent years, the emergence of airborne light detection and ranging (LiDAR) provided a new technical means for field bathymetric survey. In this study, water depth inversion was carried out around an island far from the mainland by using remote sensing images and real LiDAR waveform data. Multi-Gaussian function fitting was proposed to extract water depth data from waveform data, and bathymetric values were used as control and validation data of the active and passive combination of water depth inversion. Results show that the relative error was 5.6% for the bathymetric retrieval from LiDAR waveform data, and the accuracy meets the requirements of ocean bathymetry. The average relative error of water depth inversion based on active and passive remote sensing was less than 9%. The method used in this study can also reduce the use of LiDAR data and the cost, thus providing a new idea for future coastal engineering application and construction.
